yet another KAB mod question


Is the threaded clamp worth the 100 dollar price increase over the non-threaded model?--Cheers

If you're compelled to spend an additional $100, you're better off putting it toward the tonearm re-wire, or an Isoplatmat.

In fact, the tonearm re-wire would be a better upgrade than a clamp, IMO.
I didn't get the clamp because it looks ugly (in the photos) and it only works with the kab threaded spindle. I would have a hard time believing someone who said that the KAB clamp sounded better than some other clamp or better yet, a heavy record weight which doesn't require pressing down to secure it (unless they really compared the two ...and how many people have two tables, one modded w/ the clamp and one modded but w/o the clamp to do that?) Why get stuck with one clamp when you can try many?

Have you bought your technics yet?
So which of the upgrades are most highly recommended? And while I'm at it, is there any meaningful difference between between the three available models of the SL1200?
