Record Cleaning Machines: Hannl or Typhoon
I like microfiber looking brush on the Hannl, what some company needs to do is make what serious record collectors and archivists really need. A machine with two separate microfiber brushes and two separate vacuum wands/motors so that a wash and r... 
VPI HW-17
VPI emailed me back this Tuesday, they said they'll replace the chassis for me with their new aluminum one for a small fee if I send the machine back to them.I shouldn't have jumped the gun in blasting them here although a good number of years ago...

You can't use a wash cycle solution and rinse cycle with the Audio Desk though.Does it even clean 10" discs? 
VPI HW-17
I don't know if it's just leaking at the exit hole of the waste reservoir, where they designed the plastic tube to go on a slight incline before the decline. This really is so far removed from common sense it's ironically apropos for absurdity of ...

My garage is on a steep incline, so I'm going to lug my VPI into my tiny backyard in the cold to clean discs today. Hope the neighbors don't get pissed off at the noise.

Electricity and voodoo seem like the same thing to me, no joke. :))) 
Help With System hum, Please
Marakanetz,I've used tube phonostages for 14 years now and the only time it was noisy was when it needed servicing, so except for one month during that whole time did I have any hum. 
Garrard 301/401 audition request

David,Chance you'd wanna take a job of converting mine for me as well? Course I'd cover parts, shipping, and whatever you want for labor. All in one unit versus linked hose to basement though.With all the HW-17 VPI's in the world, surprised there ... 
VPI HW-17
I've owned the HW-17 for about seven years now and have cleaned thousands of discs with it. Yesterday I noticed a wet spot on the underside of the particle board enclosure and opened it up to see the leak. To my dismay much of the interior is cove...
