Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning


My Cleaner Vinyl ultrasonic record cleaner arrived today and it’s impressive.

Everything I’d read indicated that ultrasonic was the way to go, and now I count myself among the believers. Everything is better - records are quieter, less ticks and pops, more detail etc.

All my records had been previously cleaned with a vacuum record cleaner and were well cared for. Nonetheless, the difference is obvious and overwhelmingly positive.

I have owned a Loricraft PRC4(8yrs ago) and clearaudio double matrix(6yrs ago) among others. I have been considering a new RCM purchase for some time. I strongly considered the KLAUDIO, Audio Desk and ultrasonic. I read a lot of reviews and opinions but in the end I bought the clearaudio double matrix Pro sonic. I am thrilled that I did. Automatic, Quiet and really really cleans well. It is so quiet, easy to use and good looking, it earned a spot on my rack next to my tt. I now clean often. My vinyl was/is quiet. The difference is I no longer have concerns of damaging my cart or vinyl. It’s built quality is superb. It may be the most attractive component on my rack. It makes me want to clean and that’s saying something!
@slaw thanks for the clarification - I actually had no idea what you were driving at.  I have not read your posts about your cleaning regimen but I'll take a look. This thread has inspired me to rethink using the Audio Desk as the ONLY part of the process.

Question on cleaning schedule.
How often do you do a full deep clean on an album?
Just once when its in your ownership or have you found the need to repeat?
I have the Klaudio machine. It's outstanding ... convenient, very easy to use, one-step process. It's not the budget solution, though.

I was looking at the KLaudio but as you say a LOT of money indeed.
I have an el cheapo unit made by GrooveClean bought of eBay, it does its job but it has limitations and I am sure the KLaudio gets the job done better.
Looks like it is very well made
