Never used a clamp, but I can tell you that a weigh made of brass or any Non Ferrous metal or even marble makes a very noticeable difference.
All the Best.
Thoughts On Turntable Clamps And Weights
I have a Pro-Ject X2B and am curious about turntable weights and clamps. I perused the web and discovered that, like so many audio related items, prices range from modest to stratospheric. What are your thoughts on clamps and weights? Do they provide a notable improvement in sound quality? Does price equal quality? What should be avoided?
Thanks,

If a stator bowl is what I think it is, you may as well redesign and replace the whole motor. And once you’ve done that, you need to address the function of any speed control mechanism. If you go deeply into that area, you may succeed in never having a functional turntable, as one problem leads to another. |
@bolong Indeed an elegant solution that adds $5,000.00 to the cost of a $22,000.00 turntable available for purchase on both coasts of the US of A. |
