Clean, static free records need absolutely no help in this regard. The only remaining problem is background noise like rumble that this unit will not correct. I would never spend this kind of money and tolerate any level of degradation for the rare bad scratch or pop. I also never clean my records. Contrary to popular mythology records come from the manufacturer perfectly clean. If played with a conductive sweep arm (carbon bristles NOT camel's hair!!) and a dust cover the records never get dirty and dust is never ground into the surface as any incidental dust is cleared out of the way of the stylus by the sweep arm as well as discharging the record so it never builds a static charge and therefore does not collect dust.
If you buy used records then a record cleaning device is mandatory. I do not because every one I have ever played was unacceptably damaged.
Even after cleaning. Once a dirty record is played it is done for. Thousands of PSI pressure literally melts the dust right into the vinyl surface and there is no system that can repair the damage.
