Are the Nitty Gritty vacuum cleaners...

I used the 2.5 for a few months afriend lent me, I just got a VPI 16.5 and it does a much better job, I have to scrub myself but I think that is really the best way to clean, the NG does not allow enough fluid to be placed on record for a really complete cleaing IMO.

I used the 1.0 for a couple of months.I then bought a VPI 17F and it was a huge difference.But,as far as the $s go,300 for the N.G.is a good investment

I have a Nitty Gritty made from Kokolobo wood. It works well and looks beautiful. VPI's look much more industrial. I think they clean the same

I use my NG 1.0 everytime i place an LP on the turntable. I have heard such a difference in sound quality that there is no way i would ever go back.
