Hi.
I have a Moth record cleaning machine which I hardly ever use due to the noise and the heat it generates in my small, 3M*2M, office where it and my lp collection are stored.
So I was wondering if anyone has used one of the following and how you get on with it and its noise and heat levels.
Thank you
I don’t use any of those ones but can safely say that the Project is not for you! Thats like a Hoover on full power… well it is I guess!
Good though😊
The moth is the loudest record cleaner I’ve ever heard. My VPI is a bit quieter and I used it in a room similar to yours but I wasn’t listening to music at the same time. I have a degritter now and the cleaning part isn’t too loud, the drying is louder, not as loud as the VPI as it’s just a fan but it goes on for 5 minutes instead of 4 or 5 revolutions. I can at least leave it to it’s own devices and pick up the record when its finished.
If you get an ultasonic keep a vacuum machine to as sometimes you need enzymes to get the much off and vacuum to get the enzyme solution off.
I have two of your list.
Knosti is fully manual. How loud do you breathe!?
Humminguru emits a horrible high pitched whine. I shut the door whilst it runs (a benefit of it being mostly automatic)
I’ve used the knosti and it’s useless, especially if you use their own cleaning fluid. it leaves a horrible residue.
only way to get them properly clean is either an ultrasonic or vacuum and accept the noise
I use the manual Disco-Antistat and it does an excellent job in my experience. Manual but cheap and silent - worth a try,
Ah, sorry!!
Very little noise or heat with a Loricraft or a Keith Monks.
I have a moth.
Noise isn’t a problem, I have a pair of Royal Artillery issue ear defenders.

The cat could have a worse deal…you could be playing Emerson Lake and Palmer or Yes.
I remember my cat, when I had one, being rather nonplussed by the centre section of Echoes. (Pink Floyd in case there’s any doubt).
