@vinylshadow I'm content to let the Degritter blow dry the disk. Static isn't an issue as I use a Furutech Destat III before playing.
We Vinyl Ultrasonic or Vacuum Cleaner?
I have been working at rebuilding my Windham Hill collection. Many times I can find sealed copies versus used. My preference is for sealed if the price is sane.
The question is with new copies, is there any advantage of running them through a CleanerVinyl 132kHz ultrasonic tank versus my OkkiNokki vacuum cleaner?
Any thoughts on the subject are appreciated.

@dogberry Dang. That thing looks like a Roomba for records! Do you use that after every record cleaning? Or in between? Or both. Ever see that DS Audio Ionizer? It shoots ozone out over records. $1700. Crazy. |
I modified my Humminguru so that the discharge water is routed thru tubing to a milk jug on the floor behind my cleaning station which I then only have to empty occasionally. I rinse and dry on a VPI. I'm not concerned about steps so I use a marked pyrex measuring cup for new cleaning fluid that I heat with a coffee warming coil and a dial thermostat before use. Not sure if it adds anything but the expensive units mostly all heat the solution so I do too. |
