'VinylSonic' is a new startup that recently launched a Kickstarter campaign for its inaugural product by the same name. The VinylSonic is a vinyl record cleaner that uses ultrasonic technologies combined with distilled water. Records between the sizes of seven inches and 12 inches can be inserted into the device, and distilled with can be inserted into a dedicated compartment.

In addition to its VinylSonic record-cleaner, the company is also crowdfunding for a style-matched record player that is intended to pair with the cleaner. This device features
