Reduces Record Resonance for Better Sounding Vinyl
The VPI HRX Record Clamp can help improve the sound of any quality turntable by effectively coupling your vinyl record to the platter. The HRX reduces the minute vibrations created by the stylus tracking the groove. These unwanted vibrations can be picked by the stylus and cause distortion which gets in the way of the details you want to hear.
The benefits of the HRX can be particularly noticeable when playing record where bass vibrations or high frequency resonances are an issue. And because the HRX reduces LP slippage, it can help reduce stylus and record wear, extending the life of both.
Benefits Slightly Warped LPs, Too
The 1.7 lb. weight of the HRX is designed to help flatten the record to the platter without causing a strain on your turntable drive motor. This flattening aids in the playback of vinyl records that are slightly warped for an overall improvement in sound quality.
Constructed from stainless steel and attractively finished, the HRX looks great and will add to the visual appeal of your phono system. The unthreaded design fits most turntables.
