Record Doctor Cover for Record Doctor VI - New

Cheap Insurance for the Machine That Protects Your Records

There's a quiet irony in record cleaning: the machine that removes dust from your records spends most of its life collecting dust itself. The Record Doctor Cover ends that. Slip it over your Record Doctor VI between sessions and dust stays off the felt strips and vacuum slot that touch your records.

It's made of soft black leatherette with silver piping and Record Doctor logos, so it looks like it belongs on the shelf rather than thrown over it. A side-panel flap manages the AC cable, keeping the cord tucked away without unplugging anything. Using it takes two seconds.

For the price of a single new record, it protects the machine that protects your whole collection. That is a cheap sort of insurance, and the kind that only pays off if the cover stays within reach of the machine rather than in a cupboard.

Who Is This Cover Best For?

• You leave the machine out on a shelf — dust settles on the felt strips and the vacuum slot, which are the two parts that actually touch your records.
• You clean in batches rather than one disc at a time — the machine lives where you use it, so it collects dust in every gap between sessions.
• You want it to look deliberate — soft black leatherette with silver piping and Record Doctor logos, rather than a tea towel draped over the top.
• You keep the machine plugged in — a flap in the side panel lets the power cord out, so the cover goes on without unplugging anything.
• You own the Record Doctor VI — the cover is cut to that machine and will not fit the earlier models, so check which one you have before ordering. Whichever you own, our record cleaning solutions are what actually lifts the dirt off a record.

How Does It Connect to Your Setup?

The cover drops over the Record Doctor VI from above and sits on the machine's own footprint, so nothing else has to move on the shelf.

Feed the power cord through the flap in the side panel and the machine can stay connected underneath. Lift the cover off when it is time to clean a record, and drop it back on afterwards.

Pairs Well With

Building your vinyl setup? Here are some good companions for the Record Doctor Cover:

• Record cleaning machines, the Record Doctor VI itself if you are buying both together
• Record cleaning solutions to refill what the machine actually applies
• Record brushes for the dry pass before a wet clean
• Turntables, since a clean record is only worth as much as the deck playing it

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does a cleaning machine need a cover?

Dust that settles on the machine, especially its felt strips and vacuum slot, can transfer right back onto the next record you clean.

Does it fit other Record Doctor models?

It's shaped for the Record Doctor VI only and does not fit earlier versions.

What about the power cord?

A side-panel flap provides cable management, so the cover sits neatly with the cord still connected.

Should I put it on while the machine is still warm?

Let it finish and cool down first. This is a dust cover rather than a ventilated housing, so it suits a machine at rest.

Does it come with the machine?

The cover is sold separately. A Record Doctor VI ships without one.
