Product Highlights

Dimensions: 15.5" W x 14.25" D x 9" H. Weight: 28 lbs. Motors: 6.5A vacuum, 18 RPM high-torque turntable. Cycle: 35 seconds/side. Features: Self-aligning suction tube, stainless steel fluid tank, enclosed splash-proof design, and a hinged dust cover. The VPI HW-16.5 is the industry standard for wet/dry vinyl record cleaning. This rugged, semi-automatic workhorse utilizes a high-torque motor built to handle heavy manual scrubbing pressure. Its powerful vacuum removes embedded dirt and fluid all at once, leaving records microscopically clean, dry, and static-free while safely protecting your record labels from moisture.

Reviewers and owners praise the HW-16.5 as an ultra-reliable, heavy-duty machine built to deliver professional results for decades. Audio critics note it drastically reduces surface noise, pops, and clicks, restoring heavily soiled records to pristine condition. Users emphasize that it uncovers a striking level of clarity and sonic depth on both vintage and brand-new pressings that manual cleaning cannot achieve, making it an indispensable asset despite its loud vacuum operation.

A high-end audio system can only perform as well as the media it plays, making deep groove maintenance an absolute necessity. This machine protects your costly stylus from premature wear while effortlessly unearthing hidden musical details previously masked by dust and grime. Integrating this classic American-made cleaner into your routine ensures you finally experience the true, uncompromised fidelity of your entire vinyl collection.
