Records weights or pucks -heavy or light?

I have had good luck with TTWeights; there are so many and so many different methods that it is hard to say anything general. Harmonix makes one that costs $3000; I have not seen one nor expect to although I am a dealer for them. If your table has a good bearing I would not worry about the increased weight of the heavy ones, the really heavy ones are a real handful to put on and off. At the low [ reasonable] end I would use heavy brass; higher up there are, as I said, many ways to go. I have wanted to try the Pierre Lurne but they don't answer emails at the address given in the online review, 6Moons I think. Bren is a good cheap one. I think it all depends on the individual system and your taste.

Yes, you'll just have to get some different ones and try them. For example, I haven't yet found ANY weight or clamp that doesn't squash the sound when used on my table. But every situation is different. After you play with this for a while you may or may not continue to think it is such a good idea. Then again, you may find one that puts icing on the cake.

I know this isn't exactly an answer, but if I were you I would get the Pro-Ject Puck-It and be done with it. It's cheap, is neither too heavy nor too light, will look nice with your table, and - to me - feels of high quality for the price.
