All record weights the same ?
No they are not the same, shape is important (rounded the better), material is important (not ringing), weight is important (enough to hold firmly record down and not causing excess stress on some bearings). You may find that a threaded clamp would work better since you can adjust the downward force. G |
I can't quite read the brand name of my record clamp and the name I think is there, Belex, doesn't google up, But the device is lightweight and easily twist clamps to the spindle by compressing a rubber disc within. Yeah, it doesn't do much for edge warps, and if the LP has assumed a cone shape it'll only flatten it out when the cone is facing downward. I also have to support the bottom of my Sota's platter with one hand as I clamp the clamp down. But yeah, as far as I'm concerned it cleans up fidelity all around. Better imaging. Better transients. Less distortion. Better bass. |
Dear @arcticdeth : For you OP what you really need is a reflex clamp as the Basis : https://www.basisaudio.com/basis-reflex-clamp Dead weigth can't make that job and was what used in the old times till reflex clamps appeared. Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS, R. |
