I know lots of you have a problem with the static generated from just dusting an LP when you put it on the turntable. 

I don't!

When the weather gets cold I use this:

It puts 1 Gallon of water into the air every day.  My room is 23'X13'X8'.  This is the typical result:

Just saying, this is a simple answer to a problem that plagues most of us every winter.

Hi,

We are using this one: https://www.venta-airwasher.com/products/lw45.html ( I am not affiliated in any form).
Keeps the humidity up nicely. No only the records like it, but also the piano and the guitar stays in tune....

Kind regards

Michael

Great idea.  I run 3 humidifiers all winter for personal comfort.  One is dedicated to the listening room.
