The teaser line for this sub-forum is that no question is too trivial - so here is one that is bugging me:
I have never used a record clamp on my turntable. Is there an actual true benefit to securing the vinyl to the platter or is it completely a waste of money?
I am asking about any sonic benefit as opposed to minimizing warpage.
I am thinking of a Michell clamp which only costs $50.00 and is light which won't cause any stress on the motor and bearings.
Any thoughts?
