Wayne's Audio Turntable Periphery Stabilizing Outer Ring

@melm the O-ring is a great idea!

I’m with @z32kerber 

No going back for me. It may be a case of YMMV but for my table it improves the contact with the platter, regardless of record, and seems like the last piece of the turntable setup puzzle for me. I also find it super easy to use.

I second the super easy to use comment. Takes mere seconds. 

btw,

IF your cartridge is a LOW RIDER, the clearance between the bottom of the cartridge body and the top of the ring may be very small, or not enough, so that the beginning of track 1 cannot be played, the cartridge body must move 'in' enough for it not to contact the top/inner edge of the ring.

OK I’m going to try it and report back. Cheers for all the input. 🙏🏼
