What Cleaning Machine?


Have used a Nitty Gritty 1.5 for many years with OK results. Use their cleaning solution, as well. Probably time to consider an upgrade as many people have said the VPI cleaning machine is better - lower noise (cracks & pops).

Don't have any specific budget, but the VPI seems reasonable.

Also, what associated cleaning solutions do you use with good results?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

I'll echo the Loricraft recommendations. High build quality, easy to use, simple to maintain. The focused vacuum of the Loricraft yields more effective cleaning than an open slot wand like those found on the VPI or NittyGritty.

I consider it a component that expands my enjoyment of my record collection and measure its value accordingly. Besides the Loricraft, there is no other component in my system I truly regret not purchasing sooner.

Alas, they are rarely seen on the used market. If Junior can get those ISBN numbers maybe *he* can shop the used market. ;-)
