VPI Periphery Ring Clamp

The large and massive ring is applied to the edge of the record that it holds firmly against the platter. Paired with the clamp, the effect is similar to a vacuum pump, without the noise! Also, it is milled to perfection, which is a sign of its efficiency. It is obvious that this type of accessory will directly affect the sound quality. By holding the record firmly against the platter, the cartridge will be able to track the groove more accurately and will not move inside the groove. The bass is better defined and more textured. The overall sonic performance is cleaner and natural and the sound stage is wider and more precise.
