i own both types of machines. you can make a good case for either as the 'only' one; or make a strong case to 'need' both types.
i made the same case on another thread that Norm makes about the fact that either machine likely improves on the other depending on the sequence. a second re-cleaning helps by either machine.
and i respect Syntax's point that clean water is better than re-used filtered water....unless it isn't. and OTOH flipping a clean Lp over and laying it on the 'less that perfectly clean' platter also introduces a point of contamination.
anyone who is putting enough passion and effort in cleaning Lps to be involved in this thread has already got clean records.
who has the cleanest?
