Orb Audio DF-01iA+


I use a VinylFlat and Groovy Pouch, but have spoiled one record with it (and saved several others). Does anyone find this more expensive device better?

Yes. I bought the non “+” version a few months ago after using Vinyl Flat and pouch for years with mixed, and sometimes damaging, results. The Orb has flattened every LP with no damage, and its a pleasure to use. Worth the price to me.

Personally, I would not hazard the risk. But you can get a step down transformer easily enough if you want to go that route.

@mijostyn , it seems like more than half the new LPs I buy these days have egregious cups warps. What gives? I got sick of returning them, sometimes repeatedly. If a vacuum platter can master those warps. I’m in awe. The Orb does take up an absurd amount of room. Luckily, I have a big closet off my office with AC where it sits at the ready, next to the Degritter.
