Anyone out there own a Clearaudio Double Matrix Pro Sonic?


I have resisted buying a record cleaning device for four decades. Just have not needed one. However recently I was given a collection of 78s and LPs from the 50's and they are filthy. I would have to change the water in a Spin Clean after every record. I have researched the topic to death and have decided on the Double Matrix Pro Sonic. My thinking is that it does not recycle cleaning solution and it vacuum dries the record removing all the water and filth. I watched You Tubes of it working but nothing is ever said about durability. I can get one new for $5,500.00 but for that kind of money I expect it to out last me.

Comments from users will be greatly appreciated.

Most of my vinyl has been kept in very good shape, I never buy filthy used records.

I am still amazed at what an incredible job my VPI Cyclone does, and for the record it is also bi-directional.I don't obsess with flipping the record over onto a "dirty " mat because the vinyl would have to be dripping crud for that to be an issue IMO.
