FEBRUARY 7th, 1964

What is a record stabilizer, and how does it work? A record stabilizer, sometimes also called a record weight or puck, sits on top of a vinyl record during playback and helps to stabilize the record, minimizes warping, and reduces resonant vibrations. It can also lead to more consistent tracking of the stylus across the record. Overall that means an improved sound stability, allowing for a cleaner and more accurate reproduction of the music. What makes your stabilizer special? Each Precious Sound stabilizer set contains three inserts designed to celebrate a music icon, designed and crafted with silver gilding to augment the listening experience with a deeper connection-visual, haptic, and emotional-with the music you cherish. Can I buy just the stabilizer or just the inserts? Not at this time. The stabilizer comes in a set with the record weigth and the inserts. We are planning some upcoming special edition inserts, so keep an eye out and be sure to sign up for our newsletter. How do I properly use a record stabilizer? To enhance your listening experience, place the record stabilizer atop your records at the center of the turntable before hitting play. Do record stabilizers work on both standard and heavyweight vinyl records? Both new and old records? Yes, record stabilizers are appropriate for use with 12 and 7-inch records. Can a record stabilizer cause any damage to my vinyl records? Generally, no! It helps physically smooth the record to "stabilize" the sound. BUT...If your records are brittle, better not to use a stabilizer. Keep your records from becoming brittle by storing them at room temperature, storing them upright, and keeping them out of sunlight. Also make sure to place the record weight on the label portion of the record and avoid touching the grooves with your hands or any object other than the needle. How do record stabilizers differ from record clamps or weights? A record weights and stabilizers and pucks are used synonymously. A record clamp on the other hand applies pressure on the record by screwing into the spindle.
