“Cons: probably sold out already”@Ed Selley reviewed it recently and seemed to be taken by it. It’s probably still too new for anyone outside reviewers here to have heard it in person.
NAD C 3050LE Integrated Amp Review
Review of the NAD 3050LE integrated amp, built to celebrate the company's 50th Anniversary and sporting a rather different lookwww.avforums.com
There actually IS a Bluos module unit, my friend ordered it. Initially it appeared it was only an add on but they are selling a version of the unit with it installed along with the DIRAC as well apparently.
Don't look at me. It's Newman's fault.
So yours is sometimes squeaky? @jt4527 mentioned a high pitched squeal sometimes as well. It’s happening on every record for me. It just seems like that is how it’s supposed to work since it has been consistent, but maybe it’s not? Do other people just have this sometimes?
I almost never use my VPI anymore. The HG is so much easier to use and makes me actually clean records more. The HG fits in a kallax shelf and is very lightweight.
Mine “squeaks” like 9/10 times. The high pitched noise is just the ultrasonic I think…
There’s the super-high pitched squeal that is normal, and there’s a lower pitched shriek that sounds like nails on a chalkboard that only happens on some records.
Yea it’s a toss up for the nails on chalkboard noise for mine. But it’s ok because I just put it in another room. Still not as loud as my VPI
I've never used my vacuum record cleaner since the arrival of my HG. If I had a record dirty enough that I didn't want to put it in the HG, I'd just use a cloth and some solution to get the major dirt off of the record, then pop it in the HG. Also, I'm not sure I understand one of your questions about "releases that need a specific type of cleaning?". If you're referring to new releases, I assume the same type of cleaning should work for all of them. If your question was more about relatively clean (as in new) vs dirty (as in some thrift/garage sale purchases), see above.
No doubt true, and I'm envious of your resolve.
Yeah, I legitimately thought I might be damaging my hearing with the Home Depot Buckethead shop vac I originally used with my Squeaky Clean. I got a nicer Dewalt that was less strident, but I’d firmly place the Humminguru in the ‘annoying’ category rather than ‘enjoy hearing loss.’
Plus you can walk away from the HumminGuru while it's doing its thing. Not so with the Squeaky Clean. That's a bonus not only for the ears, but also multi-tasking!
