Black Record Weight Stabilizer, Vinyl Weight for Turntables

Works well for preventing slippage when using an acrylic platter. Has a nice felt bottom that protects the record & the low height makes it an easy fit in most units. This is a 5 star item as long as you aren't using it to help tame warped records, at only 164g it's not heavy enough to do that. That being said the lightweight is a huge benefit on entry level units with less robust drive systems. Throwing the usual 400g's on is a great way to wear down a bearing/motor. Throw this thing on just for the cool looks guilt free!

It's a weight! It has a hole in the middle and it sits on the spindle directly in the center of a vinyl record and stays right where it is placed! Amazing! Seriously it's something I didn't know I needed until I had it. Well made and functional. What else can I say? Cheap and cheerful!

Great weight for my turntable and looks great too. Conpatible

Wasn't sure about it, but I take our Vinyl collection serious, with that said we read up on it, after 2 years of curiosity, I gave in. I really don't like wasting money, I shopped around. This by far was the best value, now if it weighed right, to make a difference...? And it does! Never thought a Record Weight Stabilizer would make a difference, oh but it does! Got it in the color black. One day turn around, very happy with purchase. Appearance, quality, size, color choices, great stability, sound quality - NICE! I would definitely recommend!

It does what it says. Worth the few bucks it costs!

I was skeptical at first but I hear a slight increase in quality, since the disc is not only vibrating less but is being flattened out more on the platter.

Looks great and does the job

Could be a little heavier but the anodizing seems like good quality

Excelente. Cumple con su función muy bien. No cambia las revoluciones del plato una vez colocado. Viene en un su caja sin nada de publicidad ni marcas. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

These weights look really cool on my Turntable but does it work ? Let me share my experience with using this particular weight. I took a few months before I purchased this weight since I had doubts about additional weigh and added pressure on the platter bearing of my Turntable. It weighs about 156 Grams and thats the maximum weight I decided to purchase since adding more weight might add excess stress to the platter bearing. I am using it on Technics SL1200 MK2 and after asking around I was informed that it can handle an additional 156 grams with ease. Each turntable is different so use at your own risk or seek advice from actual users of your model or contact the manufacturer of your turntable. I personally think that anything heavier than 156 grams can potentially be detrimental to your TT platter bearing over time. Thats just my personal opinion. If you are using a belt driven TT then a platter clamp might be better on a belt driven TT as opposed to weight a direct drive TT like my SL1200 MK2. Thats the opinion of the knowledgeable people I consulted who agreed that weights and platter clamps have very specific uses based on the type of TT you have. Now what did I experience with this beautiful and well machined weight ? Well, the improvement is not dramatic but noticeable. I purchased this weight simultaneously with an acrylic slip mat as pictured. BTW the TT is not dirty as shown in the picture but it was badly beaten up when given to me and those are scratch marks. Yes. it was cleaned and serviced. Technics Sl1200 MK2 are built like tanks. The correct weigh does a few surprising things. It first acts as a dampener and improves contact with the stylus and and grooves. A few older vinyl that were noisy became less noisy and vinyl in great condition were dead quiet. I noticed a small increase in bass and the mids and highs sounded more pronounced. It's hard to describe but I can only report on what my own ears heard as opposed to any measurements. Adding a 5.5 gram weight in combination with an Acrylic platter is an excellent upgrade to my SL1200 MK2. I give this weight thumbs up and can add this to my list of recommended items if you use it on Direct Drive TT.

A must have weight for your record player !

Nicely made, I chose this one because it is lighter in weight compared to most, perfect choice for my Rega turntable. Thank you

Until 2026 i have never heard of one of these. Worked great on LP records
