Hi all, I am after some vinyl cleaner advice. I am in the middle of a house move, I have sold my house, the house I was planning to buy fell through (Gazumped) and my hi fi and most of my vinyl is in storage. Owing to a packing oversight, I have with me about 200 hundred records which were waiting to be cleaned – they should have gone to storage with about 300 other records and my Knosti disco antistat record cleaner.

I am rather bored in temporary accommodation, and thought I would clean my records to pass the time, should I buy another Knosti – cheap and cheerful , a project VCS2 , or a cheap ultrasonic ?– I enjoy my vinyl but cannot see me buying a lot more so cannot justify an expensive ultrasonic , but feel my vinyl deserves more that the Knosti.

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.

Regards

Alby

I have no more than 60/70 LPs and invested in an ultrasonic (purchased separate components myself).
The Knosti is now used solely for pre wash and after rinse.

I've got a KAB EV-1 that I dug out recently in response to someone's wanted ad - cheap and very effective - drop me a PM if it's of any interest - MH
I've used one for years. Never felt the need to buy something 'better'.
And it's cleaned some pretty filthy 2nd hand records, as well as my own collection.
