Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaning System

I run the audio desk vinyl cleaner since 3 months and I am very happy. In the beginning the drying process was not at its optimum. Therefore the process chip had to be reprogrammed. One can exchange the chip quite easy.

I also use a Clearaudio Double Matrix and a Source Odyssey RCMMKV. Both machines have their pros and cons, the Double Matrix is good for the quick run and the Source Odyssey provides the best result. The Vinyl Cleaner is an excellent washing machine especially for the lazy boys...

I'm trying this machine out now. I'm very impressed. I can clean LPs in a fraction of the time and effort and they come out looking beautiful.

I normally use Walker Prelude 4 step and was worried about some audible residue but so far so good.

I have tested four different versions together with Rainer Gläss during the market entry phase. I wasn´t convinced from the beginning. Now he has a chip programmed which is superior to the first ones. This machine is now a killer application. It doesn`t look like that from the outside but it is really one of the best ways to clean your records - and it is the most easy way to do so.

Loricraft is the best IMHO. Many audio/record/LP preservation societies use these machines. They are not as loud as most others.

Loricraft is good but the Source Odyssey is even better regarding silence and handling for on the spot cleaning. But on both machines you have to monitor the cleaning and reverse the side of the record. My Clearaudio Double Matrix is very loud and I do use it only when I am short of time. The Vinyl Cleaner runs the disc through an ultrasonic bath and drys without taking care through the cleaning process. That leads to a very good result and is easy to operate.

If you have tried it you will use the Loricraft very seldom
