KLaudio or Degritter Mark II
@antinn thanks for your responses. Reading the P60H operation manual was helpful.  However, not having actually operated it is quite another.  I learn much better by doing. What I was responding to is that attempting to pause the machine every 3...

@antinn I’ve read the Elma Sonic P60H operation manual. Judging from its published dimensions, the CleanerVinyl components that I use with my 40kHz UCM will fit onto the P60H with one exception (i.e. the pump/filter). The P60H carrying handles are...

@antinn Can't argue with math!  Thanks, once more!  Now, time to take a good look at the P60H operation manual. All the best!

@antinn in a two-tank protocol employing my present 40kHz US machine and the Elma Sonic P60H, would using a 6L 180W, 132kHz cleaning power, 200W heating power, instead of the P60H achieve better results? Thanks!

@antinn:  All I can say is WOW!  And thank you, thank you, thank you, again and again!  You never cease to amaze, both with your technical expertise and graciousness with your time.  I wish there were something I could do to repay the kindness.

@antinn First and foremost, thanks very much again for your continued guidance! A few questions: As I think I may have mentioned earlier, most of my core collection of LP records are already relatively clean.  Should I avoid using the Knosti &am...

@antinn Thanks ... I think ... for turning me on to that post by Wizzard.  I suffered through nearly all of it.  That man is in need of help!  The Arizona Mike tip, however, was considerably more helpful!  The video afforded a good real-life look ...

@antinn First and foremost, thanks so much for your kind attention to my record cleaning madness!  Also, a correction of a typo I made: Rotation speed for my final ultrasonic rinse cycle(s) is/was 0.5 RPM; not 5 RPM. In answer to your questions/...

@antinn You are indispensable! My last foray of record cleaning involved the use of LAST POWER RECORD CLEANER (used as directed) as a pre-cleaning step. Then, I used a Knosti Disco Anti-Stat filled with Mobile Fidelity Super Record Wash as anoth...

@jacksky I don't have the scientific acumen lewn has brought to your dust dilemma.  However, just instinctively, brushing records with felt does seem like it would cause static electricity and attract dust like nobody's business.  Another reason w...

@ghdprentice True enough!  Technology does improve and march onward, at least most of the time. Take a look at this: photos of Grundig stereo console - Bing images I can't honestly say this was MY first TT because my parents bought it in the 50...

Yes, the Humminguru is a reasonably priced alternative.  However, based upon what I've read, it is a 40Hz machine whereas the Degritter is 120Hz and better designed and built.

@ghdprentice Thanks!  I'm certain the MoFi Ultradeck+M has a lot to do with the fidelity I'm getting from my vinyl now.  It's only the second TT I've ever owned.  My previous TT was a Phillips 212 Electronic.  Yes!  I'm that old!  That Phillips wa...

@dogberry in the old days, when Christ was a Corporal, I incorporated Kodak Photo-Flo in my manual cleaning process of a bunch of my records. I don't think it did any harm. However, after reading Neil Antin's "Precision Aqueous Cleaning of Vinyl R...
