New to the Record Cleaner Wars: Music Hall WCS-2

"OK, I bought this thing and I love it."

Stop right there. You won the war.

Hmmm...it look just like the one by Opera/Consonance Audio....

Heck, yes, it does look just like the Opera/Consonance. And it costs $100 less. Watching the video, the motor on the Opera sounds equally violent.

Music Hall says "this thing really sucks!" And so it does. If you've done an A/B or something like that, feel free to post.

I waited four months until Quest for Sound received their first shipment. I've had it for a few months, very happy with the performance. Two factors I considered before ordering it were the water resistant aluminum/plastic casework and its high WAF. My listening room is our living room. Even though the WCS-2 sits out of the way on a low slate radiator cover its shape and dark color minimizes its visual impact. If 'she who must be obeyed' doesn't really notice it my life is just a little bit better! Ear protection is a must, it's a monster.

Are the Music Hall WCS-2 and Consonance Vinyl Record Cleaning Machine just a re-branded Hanss Acoustics rc-20? The RC-20 has been on the market for years.
