Installing a VPI stainless steel ring?


Frustrating to pay $600 and not get one lousy sheet of paper that explains how the thing works.

I expected that it gets intalled directly on the platter and has some sort of locking mechanism that you employ every time you put a new record on.... but apparently I'm wrong. Doesn't seem to sit on the platter very well at all.

Do you actually lower this thing on TOP of an LP?? I'm guessing yes, but would like the peace of mind of knowing for sure before I try it ....

Thanks again. I must have asked 20 noob questions over the past month....

But it doesn't address midbass.
Note that 99% of turntable users, including me, do not have a ring. In six years of constant play, I've never needed one.

In a previous question of yours, my first comment was,

"You should: 1. Not buy anything more."

Ahh well, your $600 purchase shows what my free advice was worth.

I could use $600. I wish I could have visited your setup, and gotten it sounding good. I would have accepted $200.
