Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Customer satisfaction. Way to go.

As I said they sound like a good idea in principle (especially for really dirty records), but I'm unaware of any record libraries or archives that use them. I think most use something like the Keith Monks RCM, which is not an ultrasonic cleaner.
As an aside, why are RCMs so expensive? Necessary, if not essential, but IMO expensive.

I have seen what ultrasonics can do to alloy carb bodies
Would not use one on my record collection

I have owned a Okki Nokki and a Moth , Im going to say somthing contriversial now ( in my opinion ) they are both
" VERY LOUD , painfully so " and do the job " sort of " NO comparison to the machine I now own that is VERY QUIET and does a excelent job , the only drawback is the price , I justified the purchase based on the size of my LP collection 2000 ish , If I clean them all once each it works out at .75p per LP plus cleaning fluid
Lots of advantages , I can go into more detail if needed ,
PS buy some ear defenders

£1,500 is a hell of a lot of a lot of dosh for an RCM. What make is it?

I have an ultrasonic cleaner with automatic motor bought from eBay for about 150 quid, in my opinion for its price it's decent,does a good job of giving me disks that seem quieter and less crackly. I bought mine from a supplier in Poland I think after reading quire a few positive reviews on a Facebook audio page.
