Audio Technica AT 666 vacuum disc


Is anyone currently using it?
I have it on trial, the product is almost perfect NOS, but after about 7-8 minutes the LP loses its vacuum; is it necessary to also use a clamp to get the vacuum for the whole LP?

Lol ... you wrote a heresy; speed has nothing to do with it, it’s always a 12 "instead of 7"

it is important to communicate with whoever owns this item.
I was just kidding with you.

The 12 inch 45 RPM records are usually about 7-8 minutes per side.
I just watched a video on this contraption. How was this ever thought to be a win?

Looks like something to toss in your audio junk drawer after the novelty wears off. Why not just get one of those reflex clamps with rubber spindle washer?


I think they were pretty good when on the market. But now they’re old and prone to lose vacuum due to air leaks in the system. Given your observations I’d worry about that. If you could localize the leak, you may be able to effect a repair.
