Engineered to Perform

Machined from the new alloy with super precision machining of the outer lip and designed to locate on the LP’s outer edge with the special centering disk that is included.

It is very simple, you can build a great performing turntable but the record is the source of what you will hear, it must be coupled for true to life and realistic playback.

Benefits

Dramatically reduces background noise

6 to 10 dB in noise reduction measured results

Great improvement

Flattens most records

Improves cartridge tracking and stabilizes the VTA of the Stylus

Improves soundstage by more accurate record tracking

This outer ring will fit all records and improve the playback quality of all records new and old.

Stylus Clearance

The top surface of the ring is less than .014 (.35 mm) higher than the LP surface providing excellent clearance for the Stylus on the entry groove of the record with manual and automatic turntables.

High Density, Low Mass ALLOY, Superb Dampening Capability

The Outer Ring is machined from solid proprietary non magnetic alloy

The very thin walled areas make the machining extremely difficult. To make a ring this size, perfectly flat and concentric, we use advanced plasma and laser cutting CNC’s and MULTI AXIS CNC Lathes. Each ring produced by a senior Aerospace Machinist. The rings are flat and concentric less than .004 of an inch over the entire ring, not an easy task.

The Sound

The outer ring will provide dramatic improvements to the records imaging and sound staging. The absolute peak performance will be gained when there is no free play or movement from the vinyl itself. The Outer ring and clamp essentially locate the vinyl directly to the mat, significantly reducing distortion even with worn record grooves. The 480 Gram Alloy Outer Ring will reduce and remove the warp in most records except for the most extreme. If the record is more than 3/8 of an inch warp the ring will flatten most of the warp but they may still be unplayable. Caution is advised.

The 480 Gram Alloy Outer Ring reducing high frequency noise caused by microscopic vibration that causes the stylus to “hear” sounds that are not there, this causes listening fatigue. The true high frequencies can be extracted from the vinyl essentially cleaning up the distortion caused by a vibrating the record groove. Play only what is there in the groove. The 480 Gram Alloy Outer Ring provides smooth and accurate sound across the listening spectrum. The quiet passages are beautiful, less background noise, less tracking and VTA errors create awesome dynamics.
