Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight

I know you all really know what the Stillpoints LP I is/does. Still (hah,hah), I think calling it a record weight doesn't describe this item accurately. It is really a device that provides a way for resonance to flow out of the lp/platter, reducing that to heat, instead of driving them back into the platter/bearing. (This is an important distinction!) It does weigh around one pound, so in this sense it is a weight.

FWIW, here's my personal results using the Stillpoints LP I.
Increase in transparency would be the best one-word term to describe it in my system. This has an effect on everything.

Increase in micro/macro detail
Increase in resolution
Transient response is even quicker/sharper/snappier
Bass info is more delineated, less confused,
Music sounds clearer/cleaner

I would imagine each persons unique system/set-up will react differently. These are my findings, all positive.

Pkoegz: I can only try to express what I hear in my system. It replaces my original two-piece BDR(clamp). That (clamp) kept the vinyl tighter/flatter to the platter. If I didn't have positive results with it, I'd sell it and buy some lps. The fact is, I enjoy my lps much more now in the ways I described.

I think it's important to note that these devices work differently in every individual set-up. IE: differing TTs, in association with varying platforms etc... IMO, there is no ONE "best" record weight clamp that will work equally well in the majority of the differing systems out there.

Ttweights: You aren't considering potential customers like myself who use an ET arm. (Why are we the forgotten ones?) There is a compatibility issue regarding having the clearance for the products you offer as well as other issues.

I will reiterate that one clamp/weight isn't necessarily the best for all situations.

As Dgarretson wrote: "I use it and I like it".

I see that comment as a logical end to this discussion. It does require a significant investment in order to find out for yourself. If you are in to vinyl in a serious way, and after evaluating your system's needs, if you conclude that a device of this sort will possibly be of benefit, you need to experience one for yourself.

Wow! I was listening to the 1st pressing of Jimmy Page/Robert Plant "No Quarter", (which is an excellent sounding lp), and since it was in need of flattening, I put the Stillpoints LP isolator onto the top of my McCormack DNA 225 (Platinum) that is sitting inside (on the bottom shelf) of a Solidsteel 5.2 rack, the amp's shelf, which is a BDR, "shelf-for-the source" platform that is itself, sitting on three original Stillpoints isolators, the amp is isolated more by Symposium Rollerblock Jrs. w/ ceramic ball upgrade. Whew!

Now, while the lp was playing, and the lp isolator was not in use, I put it on top of the amp and, WOW!, the dynamics were much improved, it almost seemed as if the volume was increased, I feel that so much hash was removed that I was hearing what is really on this lp!
