What record weight for Rega RP10

I had a LinnSondek that really opened up when used on a balsa shelf that I knocked together with a couple of small brads

Zuman. I looked at this online and there isn’t much explanation of how the clamp works. So if I understand/assume, you apply some downward pressure then tighten the collet? As mentioned, I do have some concern about applying too much pressure on the spindle bearing. I am not sure what Rega uses, it seems to me that I read they used saffhire which would concern me about crushing or fracturing the bearing. If they are using hardened steel then no issue. Let me know if I am correct on how the clamp works.

stringreen. When I had my LP12 I made a thick MDF platform with cherry veneer and uses Aurios bearings underneath and that help substantially. I do miss the LP12 but not the issues that went with it. Not so much the table other than the tuning and adding upgrades. Plus having a suspended floor created footfall issues.but probably the best sounding table I have owned to date.

That's correct...you just press down a bit then twist the knob to tighten it. It doesn't take a lot of pressure and I've never had any sense that the ball bearing is being stressed. And mine is still working fine.

Thank you, Zuman. I found it for 70.00 and plan to get one coming. 

I appreciate your help

No personal experience with either, but look at Origin Live.
