Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaning System

Yes, As mention it is the best machine for cleaning vinyl records. I had a VPI17F, Loricraft and Keith Monk( Also with bad after sale service from UK the guy does not answer any email only phone calls if he is around) out of the window went the Keith Monks.The machine will not be perfected unless it users better design or less complex electronics. I think after spending $3000 you would like the machine would be a breeze with good after sales service.It looks like I have to do to fix the bugs in the machine.Yesterday made mods to the second machine so be more reliable. And still waiting for the RA# number from US distrubutor.
Tgb I thing you did the right thing by sending it back. As a consumer you need better than that for service instead of most of it's 2 year warrenty up and down the workshop.

Jtsamarinda, it is not funny what you experienced. Although I have a better history with my unit I do believe you. 4 month waiting period is "no service at all".

As you are a little troubled with this very sophisticated German product you may try another new star at the sky - the LR1. LR means "lautlos rein", translated in Englísh: "silently clean". you find this machine which I have no experience with under: www.lautlos-rein.de

good luck

Does the world really need another piece of audio jewelry disguised as a record cleaner? Where should I put it - next to my Porsche design stainless steel and lucite hand mop?

This looks like an interesting way to clean records. But, based only on my cursory look at their web site, I question whether this system will clean very dirty (aka typical garage sale) records very well. I doubt that the microfibre pad (called a cleaning tape) will clean all the way to the bottom of the grooves. This might be a great system for keeping new and pristine records in top shape for playing, but not for this boy at the prices listed.

Br3098, the Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaner is an innovative device for record cleaning that gets the user out of the picture and does work, quite well. Were it more reliable, I would have one in a flash, as I am tired of spending as much as 20 minutes per record, using four fluids and awaiting a string wand vacuuming across the surface between each for both sides.

Garage style records are cleaned wonderfully as well. For the audiodesk, one is able to set the duration those pads are put to work in cleaning the record.So I wouldn't write this RCM off.

I just cleaned two absolutely disgusting records that looked like it went through mud(abuse)... After going through the audiodesk treatment, they came out looking as good as new.Fuss free and fully automated!

While mine is working perfect, i do feel that quality control and after sales service needs to be improved.Reiner seems to reply people only selectively.
