Record clamp


Hello Audiogon Forum,
I have a Rega P3 turntable with a Kiseki Purple Heart phono cartridge. I am wondering if utilizing a 5.4 ounce light weight record clamp will add to the sound quality at all or will a record clamp hurt the turntable in any way?
Thanks so much for your input.

This sort of light aluminium clamp that screw down onto the record is the best, no weight.
And it even better if you have a small appox 2cm wide by 1mm thick washer on the spindle under the record. This makes the record sit higher in the center, and when the clamp is screwed down it pushes down even better to the edge of the record and takes all the warps out.
