| Whats on your turntable tonight? Jim, the Degritter is absolutely condo friendly. Perfect size and easy to operate. Fits right in as a quality component to any system. And works exceptionally well. I'm thrilled. | |
| to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner) @barnettk I recently changed from a high mass turntable, Micro Seiki, to a completely different philosophy. I chose the latest top end unit from Rega, the Planar 10. I had purchased a Lyra Delos cartridge for my Micro Seiki just a few months p... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw Yes, the Degritter does come with one bottle of their cleaning fluid. I used just 1ml (they suggest 1 to 2ml per tank). Results were rather startling. I found musical information I have never heard before. Trailing strings, sizzle cymb... | |
| to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner) @barnettk I am glad to report to you that after cleaning my first dozen records yesterday on my new Degritter, the results are rather staggering. I cleaned and then listened to several records that I am very familiar with in order to have the b... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I got two MyMat. The one I have on the bottom has the 4" hole and then the one on top has just the spindle hole. The pliability of the material allows for the 4" record label to depress to the first MyMat. SQ is remarkable, certainly a very goo... | |
| to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner) By the way, I just completed a dozen records cleaned in the Degritter. My tubes are warming up now and I'll soon be playing some records to listen for proof in the pudding (so to speak). I have to say, the materials, build quality, and fit &... | |
| to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner) Keith Monks is the very best of all vacuum type RCM, there is no doubt about it. However, it is not ultra sonic and thus can not clean down to 2-5 microns (the deepest bottom of record grooves). There are many opinions on which method to use and... | |
| to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner) @barnettk First of all, your system is lovely. Do enjoy it in good health.I wanted to add a suggestion that in your further search be certain to check out the Degritter. I have been an audiophile for near 45 years, growing in understanding thr... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? To answer, no, the Degritter did not arrive yesterday. Delivery delay does have it on the truck to arrive today, though. I will have fun over the weekend and offer my opinions sometime next week.I have a copy of Tapestry from Mobile Fidelity, Ga... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? "Oh, Yeah?" is a very good album. I can see now why Jeff Beck chose Jan Hammer to do a live album release. They play together perfectly. Great music and I am glad to have it in my collection. I have listened to it a few times already. Thank yo... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thanks so much guys. PopMarket has it on backorder. Wall Mart is much more expensive than Amazon for this one. So, Amazon it is.This should be a treat, bringing back great memories, and on vinyl. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent Yes indeed, it is the very same concert that I saw and we knew that going into it. That's why I would like to get the 33 track set. Check this out, it was an all day concert event at the Anaheim Angels Ballpark. I was about 80 feet fr... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @boxer12 I wish the best for you wife. I hope the test results provide very good news. Stay well and healthy.@reubent thanks for the heads up on the Live At Leeds. I have an original pressing (well worn) and a box set The Who put out a number... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? @noromance I have both of those Van Der Graaf albums, original UK pressings. They are in perfect condition but I have not listened to them since the mid-to-late 80s. I'll clean and spin them this week due to seeing your posting of listening to... |
