Analogue Studio Record Clamp

Analogue Studio Record Clamp

Black POM record clamp with anodised aluminium knob for use on a wide range of turntables.

Please note this is not suitable for turntables with very short spindles, such as the current Rega range.

Modern vinyl records are thin, flexible and often warped or bowed. As most records do not lie flat on the turntable platter, sound reproduction suffers due to undamped vinyl resonances caused by the stylus riding on an unsupported record. Records which are bowed downwards contact the platter at the outer edge but not in 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 see-saw motion of the tonearm/cartridge combination. 

The Michell Record Clamp solves the above problems by bringing the record into more intimate contact with the platter.
