I just dropped and ruined my VPI delrin clamp. Before I buy another, are there alternate screw down clamps available that work with VPI tables? Curious what's out there.
You could try a SOTA record clamp. You don't screw it down. It has a lever that tightens against the spindle. I don't know if it will work on VPI tables. It is expensive about $300.
Ok, wow. The stainless steel VPI clamp sounds so much better than the delrin clamp (I borrowed one and have been listening/comparing) that it's almost shocking.
I know a clamp/weight should be a good idea but I'm amazed that I can hear such a clear difference.
If I find a good enough deal on the Stillpoints weight I may just try one out.
I’ve contacted VPI several times trying to buy parts for a broken clamp and they insist it’s one piece and won’t sell parts.(problem with mine is broken inner center piece threads.) Who ever owned the TT before must have abused it by over tightening or dropping it.
