Nitty Gritty Model 2.5 Fi

The Capstan Record Drive automates the rotation of your vinyl, ensuring a consistent and precise speed throughout the cleaning cycle. This eliminates the uneven pressure often caused by manual scrubbing, resulting in a more uniform and thorough clean.

The Model 2.5 Fi is designed to clean one side of the record at a time. You will need to flip the record to clean the second side, but the automated scrubbing and vacuuming process makes each pass quick and efficient.

Maintenance is straightforward. You simply need to empty the slide-out waste fluid tray periodically and replace the cleaning fluid applicator pads when they become worn or soiled to ensure optimal performance.

Yes, the unit comes with a bottle of PURE 2 cleaning solution to get you started. While you can use other record cleaning fluids, we recommend sticking with Nitty Gritty's proprietary solutions to ensure compatibility with the machine's applicator system.

Like most vacuum-based record cleaning machines, there is audible noise when the vacuum motor is engaged. It is comparable to a standard household vacuum cleaner, but because the cleaning cycle is relatively short, the noise is brief.

With dimensions of 15" x 9" x 8.5", the unit is quite compact. It should fit comfortably on most standard audio racks or shelves, though you should ensure you have enough vertical clearance to easily place and remove records from the spindle.
