I have had an ADS Vinyl Cleaner for 5 years now and use it regularly. I remove the filter and rinse it about every 25 lp's or so and change the fluid every 120-140 lp's. The only time I ever get excessive "crud" in the machine is when I clean an LP that someone has used Last preservative on or some other graphite based product which comes off completely with the Ultrasonic. I always use the forced air drying as you never have static buildup that way on the LP.
Audio Desk Ultrasonic Record Cleaner Onwers?
Howdy,
Reaching out to other Audio Desk owners here. I am wondering how often do change the rollers, filter and the fluid. Do you go by the pamphlets or play by ear (no pun intended). I waited for about 150 records before changing the fluid and filter and the fluid was SUPER nasty. I think I will do 100 records now but of course, it depends on how dirty the records are to begin with.
Also, the pamphlet says "not to leave the fluid in the machine for long", which is completely subjective. If you have to drain the system every week (which by the way, is no simple task for a single person) how long do you have to wait to put it back?
