KIRMUSS - Ultrasonic Record restoration and cleaning machine (KA RC1)

NOT ALL ULTRASONICS WASH YOUR RECORDS SAFELY: SPECIFY 35 KHz! "Sonically speaking", the higher the frequency, the smaller the bubbles, smaller the bubbles, they enter small crevices easier but a RECORD CONTRARY TO BELIEF IS NOT A SMALL CREVICE. MINUTE DETAILS WITHIN THE GROOVE PROVIDE TIMBER AND THE EXCELLENCE OF ANALOG. THESE INDENTATIONS SHOULD NEVER BE REMOVED! One of the critical KIRMUSS differences, it wont deteriorate your records like others on the market will, in fact just the opposite, KIRMUSS restores as well as cleans records.

In 3 years of testing, 35 kHz is the sweet spot, does not remove these details and does not "smoothen" the grooves as would a poorly designed record cleaner leaving a residue which has the same effect. Not 45, not 80, not 90 kHz. NEVER 120 kHz or higher. All are proven to damage records over time. Much misinformation out there: We have in house experienced engineers familiar with ultrasonic generation. 35 kHz is gentle yet powerful to do the job!

Introducing the team...

First up we have the ORB DF-01iA+

The Orb Disc Flattener could take the warp out of a potato chip. There's not a record in your collection that this thing can't flatten. Imagine if you could repair the warp on that otherwise valuable or favorite record. Now you can.

The Orb Disc Flattener uses a unique heating technique which is applied with two semiconductor heater films, one on the top and one on the bottom. By thermally controlling the heating-up phase and cooling-down phase, the warped record is allowed to properly relax and return to its original flat state.

Ok guys I've had both the ORB DF-01iA+ and the Kirmuss KA-RC Ultrasonic Restoration System, for a few weeks now and am super happy with the results and am now confident enough to offer these services to all of you...I'm still figuring out costings (as both postage and courier costs are about to go up)
So to start with, you send me your vinyl, I'll proceed to flatten or restore them, then box em up and let you know courier cost once boxed

-FLATTENING is going to be $25 per unit (no charge if I'm not happy with the result, so basically send me your worse and lets put the ORB to the test hahaha)

-RESTORATION (this goes way beyond just ultrasonically cleaning them) is going to be $5 per unit

So feel free to send me any and all enquiries....I'm based in Queenstown, so you can figure out/estimate postage from your end
