How much difference do lower mass cartridge clips make in playback?


My reason for asking is, the normal copper clips fail very easily IME. While they have low mass, I’ve also used the silver clips by JA Mitchell that are easily superior in construction and don’t fail. From a listening standpoint, taking away the differing materials, and the ability of adjusting for VTF, does cartridge clip mass make any significant difference?

Interesting. These low mass clips, are they crimped? Or soldered?
If soldered, how much net mass difference is there after accounting for the solder?

If you're gonna split hairs, split hairs!
