Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning


My Cleaner Vinyl ultrasonic record cleaner arrived today and it’s impressive.

Everything I’d read indicated that ultrasonic was the way to go, and now I count myself among the believers. Everything is better - records are quieter, less ticks and pops, more detail etc.

All my records had been previously cleaned with a vacuum record cleaner and were well cared for. Nonetheless, the difference is obvious and overwhelmingly positive.

@j_damon,

I assume your tank is 40khz? My new Vibrato is 80khz. I'm not sure if that alone contributes to the quietness of my unit or better parts/construction?
80kHz is much quieter than 40kHz.  A combination of both frequencies gives the best results.  40kHz means larger vacuum bubbles with greater implosive force,.  80kHz yields less force but more, smaller bubbles.
@j_damon - 40 degrees C is too hot. 
@ktimothyaI
I have been seeing 45C used in this thread, now you tell me 40C is too hot, I don’t understand 
Yes my tank is 40khz, I’m thinking of building an enclosure of panel insulation to mute the noise, it is kind of annoying
