Clearaudio Ovation Dust Cover

The Clearaudio Ovation Dust Cover

An acrylic dust cover made by Clearaudio for the Ovation turntable, sold singly. It is the maker's own part, cut to that deck, and it does the one job a cover has: it keeps the room off the turntable between sessions.

On a turntable at this level the economics are not subtle. The cover costs a fraction of the cartridge it protects, and dust reaching a stylus is the most ordinary way a good cartridge has its life shortened.

Fit and Materials

Which Turntable

It fits the Clearaudio Ovation. Clearaudio build their covers per model rather than by size, so this is not interchangeable with the Performance or Concept covers even where the outlines look comparable.

Acrylic, and How to Keep It Clear

Acrylic scratches more readily than glass and hazes with the wrong cleaner. Dust it dry or with a dedicated plastic cleaner, never with an ammonia-based glass spray, and it will stay clear for as long as the turntable does.

Who Is This Cover Best For?

• You own a Clearaudio Ovation — this is the cover Clearaudio cut for it
• Your turntable is out on display — the usual place for a deck of this kind, and the dustiest
• You own an expensive cartridge — the stylus is what dust actually costs you
• You want the maker's own part — cut to the deck rather than approximated
• Your Clearaudio is a Concept or Performance — those take their own covers, in dustcovers

How Do You Fit It?

Lift it on and off rather than sliding it; acrylic against a plinth marks both. Set it down somewhere it cannot be leaned on, and clean it dry or with a plastic-safe cleaner rather than a household glass spray.

Pairs Well With

What most owners keep alongside.

• Record brushes — a pass before each side, whatever the cover does
• Stylus cleaning — for the dust that reaches the stylus anyway
• Record mats — mat thickness affects the clearance under a cover
• Replacement styli — what settled dust costs in the end

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it fit my turntable?

It is made for the Clearaudio Ovation. Other Clearaudio models have their own covers.

How many do I need?

One, sold singly. It is not something that wears out.

How should I clean it?

Dry, or with a cleaner made for acrylic. Ammonia-based glass sprays craze acrylic over time and the damage does not come out.
