Nitty Gritty or VPI, Which record cleaner ? ? ? ?

I have a Nitty Gritty and wish I had a VPI

I must be the only Nitty Gritty owner here who's happy with mine. Bought it in l983 or thereabouts, have cleaned thousands of records with it, and it soldiers on. I like the fact that there's no platter to put stuff BACK on the record. When mine finally dies, I'm going to get a Record Doctor (made by Nitty Gritty) or a new NG. FWIW, Dave

In response to "sean," Sota makes their record cleaner. I talked to Donna about it a couple of weeks ago. You are right, they look similar but don't be fooled the Sota is a step up.

I too recently got back into viynl and purchased a VPI 16.5 immediatly. I would not stay with lp's without it! It takes two or three minutes to clean and rinse the dirtiest of discs. One of the best purchases I have ever made.
