Amari ultrasonic automatic RCM

Looks like a knock off of the Audio Desk. The price is about $1400.Its made in China. Does anyone have any experience with this machine. just can't justify $4000. I can buy a lot of records with the saving. My VPI 16.5 is getting old and is not doing a very good job with lifting dirt that is embedded deep into the grooves.

Get a vinyl stack for eBay , to rotate & how 3 LP & buy an ultrasonic cleaner for USD200 . Only set back is no dryer unless u have a RCM like VPI to vacuum dry it . Read up VPI industries forum

The V8 is just a homemade box and hardware around a $400 (tops) Chinese tank. It's a nicer Vinyl Stack. It compares in no way to the Amari units which are fully manufactured, aluminum, microprocessor automated etc. etc. My only question is did Amari cheap out or manufacture poorly compared to AudioDesk.

Be careful ordering from cattylink - ordered a Amari RW 800 record cleaner from them they sent me a CD player and is completely MIA to get the issue resolved - be warned

Good listening

Peter...sorry to hear that. I would have loved to hear your take on the RW 800. I'd really like to try one, but am a little gun shy until more info is available.
