I’ve watched quite a few bike cleaning ultrasonic videos now and everyone forgets that an ultrasonic cleaner is not only for bikes, there are many other tasks you can put to use for. Cleaning reading glasses, sink dirt catches. The dishwasher filter. So in analyzing whether it’s worth it, you should also take that into account. Also three or 4 L may be better for occasional use.
You can also put parts in a ziplock bag, in the water, with lubricants or degreaser to impregnate or clean. Particularly good for sealed bearings / hubs
That makes a lot of sense, my only experience with cassettes are contemporary ones that were pure silver when new, older ones must be different. thanks!

Those cassettes are that colour from new.

I think you should have separated the cassette sprockets, if you could of course and then you may have got a better result.
Unfortunately this cassette was riveted, but I’d definitely take them apart if possible
