I use TTWeights top of the line VPI center weight. This one does not screw on. It is stainless steel and has a silky-smooth damping material on the bottom. You do not use the VPI rubber washer with it. I like it much more than both of the VPI screw-down clamps I have (stainless steel/ delrin, delrin). Some people may think that a cupped LP sounds better though that seems counter-intuitive to me. The TTWeights gets kudos from me also for ease of use and build quality. It is very pleasing to the eye and ear. No affiliation with TT Weights- just a happy repeat customer.
TT Weights VPI center clamp
I was jus wondering, does the TT Weights VPI screw down clamp damage th record label in any way when it is tightened?
The original VPI clamps outer part does not move when tightened. only the center screw part moves so the label is not damaged. Other after market clamps for VPI seem to also use this method, and for the same reason.
The TT Weights clamps look real nice, but I am worried about label damage when using them. Can anyone with real experience please chime in?
