Clear audio professional or klaudio record cleaner


Hi Goners!
I would like to hear from owners of either device as to if they considered both and why they chose one over the other....
Both are not inexpensive so a " realtime user's" opinion would really help me out!

I prefer KL Audio, I've had many record cleaning machines and this one produces best sound and also is also the easiest to use.

Also, some machines are not equipped to deal with 10” and 7” records. KL Audio has adapters to accommodate these.

I have had my machine 1 1/2 years
It is incredible in performance, no slaving over the machine, industrially built but great display and options

Fabulous

Even on mint new records
Sadly, these machines, while very effective at cleaning, are way over priced. You can land a very effective ultrasonic cleaning machine in the US for about $1300, shipped from Hong Kong, all shipping, transaction, processing fees and bank fees included. Yes, since it will be a 220 volt model you will need to buy a $12 step down mains unit. Why pay more?
^ I am pretty sure a step down unit won't work. You need to step up to 220-240 from a 120 circuit. That requires two hot wires, one from each leg of the wiring into your house. That doesn't mean it's impossible. A circuit off your electric dryer or water heater would work. Maybe even a diy extension cord.
