Michell Record Clamp

The Michell Record Clamp is one of the simplest ways to improve the sound of your vinyl system. By gently securing the record to the platter, the clamp helps flatten minor warps, reduces vibration in the vinyl itself, and improves tracking stability. Even small improvements in resonance control can translate to clearer detail, tighter bass, and a more stable presentation.

Why the Michell Record Clamp Works

Michell invented the modern record clamp and continues to refine the design for real musical gains. The body of the clamp is machined from Delrin, a material chosen because its mechanical and acoustical behavior closely matches that of a vinyl record. This pairing reduces reflected vibration and helps the stylus read the groove with more accuracy. The clamp also adds very little weight, so it does not stress the bearing assembly or cause premature wear.

• Reduces vibrations that blur musical detail
• Enhances cartridge tracking for more precise playback
• Helps flatten mildly warped records during playback
• Improves stability and reduces the chance of stylus skipping
• A fast and cost effective upgrade for nearly any turntable
