PRODUCT INFORMATION
Functional and easy to use sound
improvement!
Although it seems rather obvious that vinyl re-
cords are at platters, this is not always the case.
In fact, a lot of vinyl records are warped and not
plane. This leads to wow eects (wow and utter)
as the needle goes up and down on the record.
Furthermore, resonances can arise as air between the record and the platter starts vibrating.
Vinyl sound can be signicantly improved, when
unwanted resonances between record and plat-
ter can be reduced, while playback. Therefore, the surfaces of record and platter should
be tightly connected. Standard record pucks
use high mass to achieve this. However, that
approach can lead to following disadvantages:
1. The weight can induce higher levels of rumble, when used with lower cost turntables which have less massive main bearings.
This will aect the sound negatively. Therefore, high mass record pucks are only sui-
table for turntables with high mass platters.
2. Instead of the desired closer contact between your vinyl and turntable, often the opposite is achieved: Due to the high weight in
the middle of the plate arching the record and
the edge loses contact with the turntable.
Both have a signicantly negative eect on
the playback quality of your vinyl records.
Clamp it is the real solution, an accessory with a
clamp mechanism around the center spindle, that
will not add weight, which would induce rumble. You
can ne-adjust pressure according condition of your
warped records. Fitting of Clamp it is easily done
within seconds. This accessory will not only please
your ears, its beautifully machined diamond-cut edges will also look extremely cool on any turntable!
