Here's an easier method. Try tapping the back or your fingernail on the edge of the record. At some point you will clearly hear that the record is completely "seated". too little or too much and you will hear the difference.

VPI clamping system design flaw?
Heres a question for all of the VPI guys and gals on agon... with the VPI HW19, the clamping system leaves the record on a positive camber towards the spindle, is there a diffrent setuo that resolves this problem? VPI offers a number of upgraded clamps for this series of table but offers no detail about what the benefits are. Is this a design flaw? I now understand the appeal of a vaccum platter.
