Great video man and what an eye opener. I was going to purchase the Degritter, but based on your feedback and the Cons….. I’m just going to stick with my VPI 16.5 and perhaps get the HunminGuru which I heard that’s a fantastic combination and it does the job very well. I agree with you overprice machine and they did not have the courtesy to throw 7 and 10 inch adapters. Unacceptable. Cheers JC/Miami

I have had this machine for about a year. One of the best things about it is that it filters the water each cycle. On some of the machines, I looked at after the first dirty record you clean that water is returned to the tank unfiltered so after the first record is cleaned the next record is cleaned with the same dirty water. This machine comes with sponge filters that need to be changed every 50 cycles
@jeffreylind3739 Жыл бұрын
I have owned and used the Degritter for 3 years. I paid full price. My observations were much different than yours. As evidenced by the cleaning filter in your video, the Degritter is doing what it is made to do-clean debris off the record surface and into the grooves by ultrasonic cavitation. This is not voo-doo science and has been used in other industries for decades. Your mention of the record spinning around in dirty water, so it isn't cleaning is false. The filter system works well, and if you change the water regularly then there is no issue, and that can be said of ANY method that cleans with water. It will not fix any damage inherent in the record- scratches, poor pressings. If the vinyl compound itself is not great (noisy)- then cleaning it could possibly enhance the noise floor, as the record is now cleaner, so more of the vinyl is contacting the stylus. Most users do not clean on the long cycle due to the heat buildup, but make several cleaning cycles on the medium cycle, which is what I do. The results are quite noticeable. Their cleaning solution is just OK-most people use tergikleen mixed with distilled water. You can easily get it on amazon. I also do a final "rinse" using just distilled water and 20ml (couple teaspoons) of 99% ISO alcohol per tank on the short cycle. If a record is filthy dirty, it should be pre-cleaned a bit before placing it in the machine. I do agree that for the cost, the adapter for cleaning 7" and 10" records should be included. All in all, I am quite certain the machine performs as manufactured and stated, and is, IMO, worth the cost. I hade made my own ultrasonic cleaning machine a few years prior, and although it worked well, was labor intensive. So, you are paying for a plug and play system that cleans your records. If you use the medium cycle and properly mixed solution, you WILL get incredibly clean records. I can't speak to the issue of the circular window info flipping upside down, that is clearly a malfunction, and with a 2 year guarantee, you can return it for another unit at no cost, including shipping to and from. My unit has performed flawlessly, and I have cleaned well over 2500 records, both LPs and 7", at this point.

I have owned a Degritter for over a year and often clean several records at a time. It does occasionally go into cooling mode but in my experience only on warm days and after 10 or more records sequentially. The machine has been brilliant and often transforms records sonically. Not just removing the crackle but also the sonic "fog" when records start to lose their brightness and the vocalist sounds like they are hiding inside a thick blanket. No cleaner is ever going to overcome the surface noise of a badly scoured/worn vinyl but it has been extremely effective overall. It typically takes no more than about 6 minutes to clean record on medium setting. Very impressed.

Yeah, something is off there. A single heavy cycle on mine raised the water temp by 6 degrees Fahrenheit. Given the volume of water in the tank, that kind of makes sense. Charles Kirmuss posted claiming it doesn’t do cavitation. If that were true, there would be no temp rise at all. I owned Charles’s machine for 2.5 years. It worked very well but was a massive hassle. 1.75g of water per fill, no water filtration and no drying cycle (everything done by hand). The DeGritter is a good machine for everyday use. It takes longer to raise the Kirmuss to unsafe water temps. Again, that makes sense given the volume it holds. Without question, I’d have kept my Kirmuss if were restoring a large collection but I’m not. I use the Degritter to clean new records. The storage/setup/breakdown process for the Kirmuss led to my decision to sell it to a friend who is cleaning a large collection.

I have a very simple and effective vinyl record cleaning method. I too am not sold on ultrasonic record cleaning machines. What I do is give my records a two stage cleaning, stage one is in the kitchen sink with dish washing soap. I work the soap into the grooves until i see the bubbles go from a greyish color to more of a white. After that I rinse off the record with lukewarm water. Stage two is using a Spin Clean with distilled water and the standard Spin Clean fluid. I dry the records in a dish rack and later on wipe off any remaining water with a microfiber cloth. I have heard the arguments about using tap water because of the minerals. My water is from the well in my front yard and is passed through a filter before it goes through the softener. It is very potable water. Using only distilled water in the Spin Clean also gives the records a good second cleaning. I have used this method for a few years now and none of my LPs show any issues from the well water. When I play them, I hear next to no, to no surface noise at all.

From watching other videos it appears what’s in the distilled water solution is more important when using ultrasonic - 3 products added appears to make the difference: IPA, cleaning solution and lastly a surfactant (Triton X-100). A guy on YT used a Hihone/Vevor 6L Ultrasonic Cleaner with the KOET vinyl spinning record rack. Heated water to 30 Celsius and ran for 30min. The differences were day and night. Plus the Vevor is much cheaper than the unit you bought of Amazon which didn’t see to make much of an ultrasonic noise compared to the Vevor which also comes with jewellery basket etc. Would love to see another test with a Vevor and solution mix - IPA/cleaner fluid and Triton X-100.

Maybe you received a 'lemon'. I have a Degritter and for most used second-hand records, the Medium cycle with an added time for drying (8 minutes total) cleans them well and I do not hear any pops or clicks unless the LP is damaged from heavy use. All new records I buy I run at quick with an extended drying time (4:35 minutes total) and they come out perfectly clean and quiet. It's quite a difference compared to my Okki Nokki vacuum style RCM. Now, I'm also playing the LPs on a MOFI Ultradeck with a Nagaoka MP-300 which tracks beautifully at 1.75 gm. Everyone's experience is different based on the condition of their LPs and their equipment. I would recommend anyone thinking of buying a Degritter to buy from a store that offers a 30 or 60 day return. You will know after the first or second cleaning whether or not the Degritter is for you.

I have to disagree with this based on my experience having a few dozen of my used records cleaned in my friend's Degritter. I use my spin clean on every record I get which is great for cleaning off surface dust/debris and fingerprints, but many of those records would still have noise even if they looked unplayed. But after having them cleaned in his Degritter most of them play substantially better, some even sounding like new despite being 40-50 year old pieces of vinyl. Other records that I would have graded VG are now bumped up a whole grade to VG+ after one or two cleaning cycles. Some records are only marginally better, but I've only had a few records where I didn't notice any improvement at all in the playback, but I attribute that to either groove damage or simply pressing defects.

In addition, there are many people around YT mentioning in some cases they washed the record multiple times, sometimes even more than just few times to get the result. But if a dirty good sounding record sounds silent after you wash it clean, the machine does the job as intended.

Kind of wonder if you had a defective machine, what with the initial power issues and perhaps the overheating during the longest cycle. Still exploring mine... I saw elsewhere that removing the lid of the water tank during cleaning helps prevent overheating, which I imagine has to do with the length of the cleaning cycle and perhaps the number of records you clean in a row one after the other. I just do one record before listening to it and have had no signs of overheating... only one longest cycle for me so far though so I'll try some more longest ones and stick around and see if there is any sign of overheating (while still keeping the lid in place), though the cycle time this once was approx 10 minutes.

There's one serious issue that most all record cleaner companies never mention. You leave cleaning residue on the records. A second wash is mandatory in all instances of cleaning machines whether automatic or manual. You dry that cleaning agent on the record and it will slowly cause problems over time.

There are endless methods and techniques on how to clean records but the single common denominator is a cleaning solution must be used to loosen and separate the fine matter in between the grooves that distilled water alone can not do. Tergitol is used by the Library of Congress for archival and preserving of records. It's literally the end all be all solution that all others try to replicate. The big issue with cleaning records is a second rinse is required to eliminate residue and every single record cleaner on the market fails at this, two devices are required to get that second rinse to prevent an unwanted residue. I am wrapping up my Degritter Mark II ultrasonic cleaner review and once that it posted, I doubt I'll be reviewing any more record cleaning devices again. I'm done with that.

I brushed clockwise into the grooves watching with a loop and i brusched a lot of dirt out. Mainly skin particles that behave as real glue once a needle pressed them into the groove. Ultrasonic cleaning damages the record i think, the black residu in the filter is vinyl i think, the groove just gets ruffer and ruffer, it eats in while the partikels stays in the groove of the record.
