Record Cleaning Machine

I just bought a VPI Cyclone a few weeks ago. To say I am amazed at how good my vinyl sounds would be a major understatement. This is the best investment I have made in many years.Im cleaning lp's from the early 70's that I thought were shot.  Cant believe how friggin good they sound, and quiet!! Have not turned on my CD player since I got this.  I know this  ( Cyclone ) cost more than your budget,but I wouldnt hesitate to buy the 16.5 based on years of positive reviews. Trust me, you havent heard your vinyl till youve heard it clean. Good luck.

VPI for that money. I got mine after it first came out, whenever that was? It will probably outlast me.

Thanks for the input guys.

I'm really intrigued by the Cyclone now as it sounds excellent. 
How long does it take to clean one record? 

I had a 16.5 and sold and bought a 17.  Both excellent.  You need ear protection with the 16.5.  But that is also my recommendation in your budget.

About 2 min. to do both sides, and the Cyclone is way quieter than the 16.5
