@mayoradamwest
I just assumed you hadn't made the purchase yet, so sorry for the post.
To answer your question...if one's priority in a US machine is convenience, the AD is your guy. It does a better job of cleaning than the velvet-lipped, vacuum machines and costs quite a bit as well. AD has a reputation of a limited lifetime (3-4 years). Then it isn't user serviceable.
I put together my DIY machine based on @rushton comprehensive thread and did some testing. You can find most of this (my testing) on the "Thumbs up for ultrasonic cleaning" thread.
With the AD one cannot clean the inside of it's tank easily/never completely. The rollers are nice but actually interfere with the cavitation process. There is no heating cycle. The cleaning cycle is way too short for maximum cleaning. |
there's an intensity about her music that is very compelling to me... |
@uberwaltz,
My normal work week, nothing exciting I’m afraid. Noticed you've been equipment shopping again? |
@uberwaltz,
With the new tonearm, surprised not much posting? |
The Califone record is great! I have most of their lps. |
Having owned/own an Audio Desk US cleaner for years, I'm a fan of DIY. |
"Crack Up" is really a wonderful sounding lp.SQ = 10! |
Up now...Doobie Brother "Livin’ on the Fault Line" a gifted OP |
had to finish mowing.....
"The Lion & the Cobra" is a really good lp, going to listen to side 2 again. |
more Sinead..."How About I Be Me (and you be you)? |
Jimi Hendrix "Axis:Bold As Love" 2013/Mono/Sony...totally forgot I owned this...most likely sourced from digital.... |

@uberwaltz,
I hear ya buddy. It was the fault of auto record changers back in the day. |
Neil Young "Road Rock" ( Friends & Relatives) dbl/lp
The Youngbloods "Beautiful!" (Live in San Francisco, 1971) Sundazed |
So the stereo version has the vocals coming out of one channel and the drums/other from the opposing channel. This is what bothers me. Just like the Beatles mono/stereo comparisons. If a record is originally in mono, give me mono any day of the week! |
Now, BS "S/T" mono
................................
@bdp24,
What are you listening to buddy? |
Now, BS "Again" , mono BTW, the vinyl on this set is super quiet. |
