AUDIO-TECHNICA AT618 RECORD WEIGHT CLAMP DISC STABILIZER

The Audio Technica AT618 Non-resonant Record Weight Clamp Disc Stabilizer is a very useful accessory for music listeners, audio enthusiasts, and DJ's who require higher fidelity sound quality and extractive performance from their records. The AT618 stabilizer's specially inert material dampens resonance as it sits on top of the record over the turntable spindle and applies 600 grams of weight, holding the record firmly in place while stabilizing the record and improving overall sound quality. This is especially useful when playing records where bass vibration or resonance is an issue, when playing a slightly warped record or when recording your vinyl into your computer and you need a cleaner sound.

Proven in use for over four decades in audiophile turntable systems, the Audio-Technica AT618 stabilizer has in recent years been rediscovered by respected vinyl loving DJs like James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem), Prins Thomas and Jacques Renault. The Audio-Technica AT618 stabilizer covers your labels if you're concerned with people who can successfully identify obscure music a DJ plays (trainspotters). It works wonders on those records that are slightly warped.

The Audio Technica AT618 is recommended for use with high torque turntables with firm platter suspension. It will not work well with turntables that have soft suspension and weak drive systems.

Fantastic Cartridge Upgrade

I bought a vintage direct drive Pioneer PL-510S that came with a 50 year old cartridge. It sounded like an AM radio. After mounting the Nagoaka 110H, the bottom filled in and a warmth I was seeking was audibly apparent. It was more than worth the investment.

Pro-ject 1.2 Turntable Replacement Belt

It was quick and easy to purchase a replacment belt for my Project 1.2 turntable.

Brilliant!

I bought this based on reviews I read here and elsewhere and I recommend this cartridge highly. You hear everything with this one. It sounds just as good as the Linn Addikt on another turntable. It really is exceptional and there is no need to spend more IMHO.

Beogram TX-2

Great direct replacement for my TX-2.

Arrived on time, worked great.

LP Gear is a wonderful niche business!

I recently went on a bit of a stylus bender since bending my very costly Jico SAS B (for my Shure v15iv). I purchased a replacement, which after tarrifs came to nearly $400! I styli'd up for all my ortofons and shares so that A) I had good, new styli for my records' health, but also for better sound. I got LP Gear's house branded replacement styli for my vintage Ortofon VMS carts and my 2 Shures.
One thing I asked for, the LpGear branded stylus appeared to be identical to the Jico "budget" solution that LPGear offered for $20 more. I asked if some of their house branded offerings were OEM from Jico. I never heard. Based on this, and the fact that the images for the LPGear and the Jico on the web page were identical (one was rotated 180 deg), I concluded that the LPGear is likely a Jico. I didn't get a reply. :( But overall I'm thrilled with the purchases and the service. I highly recommend.
