Vinyl records are thin and flexible and often warped or bowed. As most
records do not lie flat on the turntable platter, sound reproduction suffers
due to undampend vinyl resonance caused
by the stylus riding on an unsupported record, or the air moved during
listening with speakers. Records which are bowed downward contact the
platter at the outer edge but not in the middle.
Conversely, records that are warped or bowed upwards tend to rock on the
platter. In these instances Anti-skating compensation is less effective and
record wear is increased substantially by the lateral or vertical seesawing
motion of the tonearm/cartridge combination.
The Acoustic-Signature GRIP Record Clamp solves these problems by bringing
the record into more intimate contact with the platter. To use it, place the
record on the patter and place the clamp on the record. Press and turn the
upper knob clockwise to lock the unit. The record clamp's peripheral edge
will force down the outside of the record label area thereby causing the
record to completely contact the platter surface. To remove the clamp, it is
only necessary to turn the knob 1/4 turn counterclockwise. The knob does not
have to be unscrewed completely. Like all other Acoustic- Signature products
the Grip is made on high precision CNC-machines to make sure perfect quality
and minimal tolerances.
The platter weight LOAD was constructed to minimize the vibration when
playing records.
It is also perfect for users which don't like the use of a Clamp.
The exact weight LOAD weighs 280 grams and works perfect on turntables from
any manufacturer
Available finishes are anodized silver or black.
