Record Clamps: The Absence Of
I've now seen more current turntables through piccies posted onto T.A.O.S. threads than I used to see at shows a decade or more ago.
I had the impression then that many decks were being designed with clamps. Having bought a Michell Orbe prior to that, I thought this was a previously overlooked essential.
Surprise, then, to see so many being used by members, which don't have clamps on them. Anybody guess why? It all makes perfect sense to me, as it did to the late John Michell. His part screw, part spin solution probably hasn't been surpassed.
