I've had a NG 2.5(?) for many years and now run a VPI 16.5. I find using the VPI is easier to clean a record thoroughly and you can get a better rinse. It's more money, probably as load and because of its platter can cross contaminate the bottom side of the record that you just cleaned as you are cleaning the other side, but with a little care this is a non issue. I find it overall a much more pleasurable experience, especially if there are quite a few records to be washed at one time. An excellent investment. Cheers!
The Nitty Gritty Record Cleaner??
I have one, It cleans both sides of the record at the same time.
I've been happy with it, but I notice most people have VPI's.
Why?
I know some people are concerned with the felt pads trapping contaminants, but I clean those off and ocasionally change them.
Am I missing something?
