Record Cleaning Machine


I'm looking for a good quality RCM for about $500-$700. I've narrowed down my choices to the VPI HW-16.5 and the Nitty Gritty 1.5.

A friend is suggesting the Nitty Gritty due to the fact that the design of this unit minimizes the chances of "decontaminating" the cleaned side of the LP.

If you move up to the FI (fluid injection) NG models, you eliminate the problems listed above about fluids going everywhere. I also don't think there is that much fluid on the LP to really be too concerned about that, but everyones technique is different.

I've used a NG 1.5FI for years and really like it. My best friend audiophile has a VPI and likes it a lot. To me the VPI is a little more work than the NG FI models, but not a big deal.

Good listening.
