Mapleshade integrated Record COUPLING System


Anyone using this? I have a VPI Aries 1 turntable. I like the idea of the VPI Periphery ring but it is expensive and I would first have to upgrade my platter to a newer on that is compatable with the ring. Does the Mapleshade product help at all with playing mildy warped records or is it something else altogether? Are there any products other than the VPI periphery ring that help deal with warps?

I think Randyhat (great name but hard to imagine) wanted to know about the Mapleshade product. The thread has turned into a referendum on the VPI ring clamp. Like Randy, I too would like to hear from anyone who has had a go at the Mapleshade products.
I figured I was painting with a broad brush; no offense intended or taken.

Back to M'shade, a company that, IMHO, is committed to fair prices but still attracts detractors for them.
