Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning


My Cleaner Vinyl ultrasonic record cleaner arrived today and it’s impressive.

Everything I’d read indicated that ultrasonic was the way to go, and now I count myself among the believers. Everything is better - records are quieter, less ticks and pops, more detail etc.

All my records had been previously cleaned with a vacuum record cleaner and were well cared for. Nonetheless, the difference is obvious and overwhelmingly positive.

I too have bought many records which appear NM, but play poorly. Just to note, most records look NM after a US cleaning (scratches excepted, obviously). Nevertheless, a well used record plays that way, no matter how it looks.
Exactly. And it's just amazing how good an LP will look after a pass through a good US  cleaning system.

Just spent an hour trying to find it, but could not. If you want to, look for the ultrasonic record cleaning thread, and start where I left off, at page 80.

Sorry to fail.
@terry9 Thank you, you shouldn't have spent so much time on that - was just asking out of curiosity. Sorry for causing trouble.

No trouble. Read again much that I had forgotten!

The graph, IIRC, showed that 40KHz was marginally better with large particles, but that 80 KHZ was much better with small particles. Hence 80KHz.
