Kirmuss 'In the Groove' Ultrasonic Record Restorer - Upscale Audio Edition

Let me preface this by stating I have not used a Kirmuss RCM myself. I did attend his presentation at PAF in August where he made a good case concerning his credentials and his philosophy on recovering LPs. And considering the deal he was making on his machines, I almost pulled the trigger. 

However before I committed I went online and read reviews both pro and con. I’m going to say that I was dissuaded by the reports of cartridges being fouled by some residues left on LPs. Now was it due to poor usage or something caused by the process? I don’t know and want to learn more before I made a decision. 

Happy listening. 

@terry9 I agree US cleaning is great it's just that the Kirmuss isn't worth the admission price. There are many other alternatives.

There is a bible on the subject published by The Vinyl Press. It tells you all you need to know about record cleaning in general, and US cleaning in particular.

I have invested thousands in US cleaning and it is one of the highest return elements of my system. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the headsup @rsf507
 

DO NOT BUY a Kirmuss RCM. Yes they clean ok but are a pain in the a$$ to use. There's like 21 steps for cleaning......just not worth the hassle IMO.
