Dang, I didn't really think this would have such an impact on the the playback of my records, but between this and a acrylic platter: It's like a whole new world of sound without having to change your needle. Easily an upgrade you should not hesitate on if you're a avid vinyl listener!

Looks cool and gives me something to put my bubble level on to make sure the turntable is level. Honestly, I can't tell a difference in sound probably because my system doesn't reveal flaws or changes as well as a really high-end system could. I don't have any warped records and wouldn't buy them if they were so I can't tell if it helps with that either.Please don't let my review discourage anyone from buying this product. It has become part of my relaxing ritual of listening to records on a bad weather day. I bought the Hudson calibration kit and it has been very helpful in setting up my turntable.

One of the best upgrades I have made. Amazing craftsmanship that was noticed before fully opening the package. Heavy enough to reduce vibrations, but does not strain my turntable. The leather pad is a nice touch that protects my vinyl. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a stabilizer!

I’m very satisfied with this purchase. This is a quality item at a good price. It does the job of stabilizing my records as they play very well.

This thing is great!the low profile design fits perfectly beneath the lid of my ATLP60X and immediately improved playback from slightly warped records and even allowed me to finally play some badly dished records of mine.Best $20 I've ever spent. Looks great and does exactly what it's supposed to.

It feels quality. It's finish exudes quality. It's weight was unrealized until I got it in my mitts. I can not fathom ANY record slipping when this beast is set atop of them. It fits perfect on my spindle. It's easy to locate center. What this heavy weight will do to my turntable belt over time is yet to be seen.

Con este estabilizador de peso para discos de vinilo se obtienen reproducciones más estables, lo cual significa menos vibraciones, resonancias y por ende un sonido más consistente.

I normally do not take the time to write reviews. Giving stars will generally get the point across. But, this weight stabalizer is exceptional in the sense that it actually makes a very noticeable difference. And fits so perfectly. Believe it or not it even adds some bass to the records. The lid clears it by like a couple mm's on the model I own. It looks so good too. Like it has always been there. As if it was specifically made for my particular turntable. I'm ashamed to say I had no idea there even was a such thing until recently. I'd been getting other accessories like cleaning and anti static remedies, stuff like that. Basically anything I can do in order to get the absolute best sound that I possibly can. Anyhow, the point being I am beyond happy with my purchase. It also comes in a really nice box to that could be used to give one as a gift, which is precisely what I think I will do for my friends birthday coming up. With that all said, 5 stars down the line! Thanks!

This record weight (not a clamp btw) is simply the perfect size and weight for my turntable (Debut Carbon Evo). Not too big, not too small. The matte finish looks great. The soft layer on the bottom of the unit is a nice touch as well, making placement feel gentle and pleasant. Really, more than an essential piece of functional equipment, this beauty enhances the sensory experience of both putting the record on the platter AND sitting down and listening to it. The sound improvement is, of course, marginal, but the look and sensation of seeing it atop your favorite LPs and they play their magic is priceless. Worth every penny if you ask me!

I have long been familiar with the use of record weights or clamps to enhance the physical coupling between the LP and the turntable platter during playback. After purchasing a Mobile Fidelity UltraDeck, I was considering the use of a record weight with the unit when I noticed that the manufacturer offered a turntable weight for $200! Although I'll admit that some level of engineering was required in its design (mostly, to determine the optimal weight), but in my opinion, $200 was just an audiophile-oriented rip off for a chunk of machined metal.I found that the MoFi (standard) Record Weight, 'engineered for use with the turntable,' weighs 13 oz., and subsequently discovered the Hudson "Big Ben" Record Weight, which also weighs in at 13 oz., but whose cost was under 30 bucks, not 200, like the MoFi model! I purchased the Big Ben and immediately noticed a stark sonic improvement! The bass is much more well-defined, and the music sounds much better overall. Physically speaking, the Big Ben has a passing resemblance to its overpriced (in my opinion) competitor, with the bottom of the Big Ben fitted with a faux, leather pad to avoid damaging the record label, fitting comfortably over the spindle of my turntable. It also looks good.Although I cannot close the dust cover of my turntable during LP playback, due to the additional height of the weight, many 'purist' turntables' dust covers lift off (rather than being hinged), making the playing of records impossible with it on (in those cases), along with the fact that many audiophiles prefer the sound with the dust cover off.Overall, this weight looks and works great! Only you (and perhaps your sharp-eyed, audiophile buddies, noticing the absence of the trademark on the product) will know the difference between it and its overpriced competition.
