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.

slaw, no need to apologize.  I thought my little teasing would be obvious to everyone but apparently it was not.

Anyway, not to detract from a serious subject (yes, I'd like to optimize the performance of my records too) but I can't resist a bit of fun from time to time.

I use Keith Monks vacuum machine. Built like a tank. Quick, easy, safe, no mess, no setup, minimal maintenance, and records sound great. Game over.

Thank you so much, Terry, I will certainly have a deeper look into this.

@psag- I have a Monks too (an Omni). If I had to choose one machine, that would be it. But the synergy of cleaning on the Monks and ultrasonic- in both directions-- brings more to the table. Try it.
