Thank you for posting the link. Hands free operation and no disposable batteries makes it a no brainer. I pre-ordered earlier today.

Those responded with being in a location where static problem almost non-existent…well, I live in Texas and yet to use any type of static treatment. All of my record collection purchased new, even with thorough cleaning; I occasionally hear a tick or pop. So that tells me either I am doing a crappy job of cleaning or there is room for static treatment. 

I like automation so Orbit would be a welcomed addition to my TT setup. 

“Which brings me to the HumminGuru Orbit. It emits both positive and negative ions, and must be used with the LP on the platter.”

Are you basing your statement off the demonstration video? Personally, I was thinking to use Orbit on both sides of the record by placing it on my transit platter and then move it to TT for playback. This way I keep my TT mat static-free :-)

Thanks for sharing resource for double sleeves. I have been looking sleeves for boxed sets and jacket fold LP’s.

Transit platter can be found here ⬇️ …I have been using one for sometime now and find it very handy when I am cleaning records or swapping them off my TT.

Orbit in the house and works as advertised. So far cleaned 5 records that previously had pops n ticks. And it’s super convenient to use.

Glad to hear your troubleshooting was a breeze. I concur with your assessment, 10 plus treated records and Orbit continues to impress. It’s a very smart design and so easy to use..worth every penny, IMHO.
