Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaning System

... and learned that the second production run had greatly improved the cleaner"

A true audiophile Product.
Did the owners of the first generation get a refund?

Hi! Tbg,
I had the production No:5X not rotating fix that, than water was not filling the tank, replace IC power amp. Lastly would not rotate and smoke came out, motor drive gear box jammed, cause the IC amp to go overload blew that IC into half.
I got another unit production No:4XX would not rotate fix that problem.There are sum inprovement e.g spring load drive which now take 200gm and 100gm records. The earlier model had problem with 100gm to thin would not rotate and 200gm would not rotate as was too thick and later the drive roller wheels came off.There are some change on the drive chain for the micro rollers and brass pin stoppers for the record.Other than that it's the same machine for that price of $3000 the part don't worth $200 for it. I am waiting for RA# for my No:5X to be fixed to date have not recived any reply to countless e-mails and phone calls to Germany. The guy had an good idea but did not follow up on realiablty and another on user friendly to fix it the system is all seal with PCV sheet the only area could work on it was the electronics.If I do not get an RA# from them I will machine the bottom part of the unite and repair the drive motor gears and reattach it with PCV sheet of the same type.

Jtsamarinda, you have been very stoic. I loved the convenience of the Vinyl Cleaner and wish I could buy a reliable one. Please continue to tell us of your saga.

Jtasmarinda,
you really had a bad experience. I did receive one of the first units (so Series I) at High End 2010 in Munich. It is true we had to change the chip once and also use a different fluid mixture. Since then I have washed over 400 records without any problem.

I do own the Source Odyssee MK V with two brushes as one of the first customers in Germany too and will not give away this wonderful and very precise machine. But those two machines on one`s washing table are a perfect match for all needs- Washing Heaven !

Hi guys, how do you check th serial number of your unit? I want to know if mine is current.

Thanks!
