If you haven’t tried a record weight, you should. Unlike many audio upgrades that promise questionable benefits, the advantages of a record weight are rooted in simple physics—and often lead to noticeable sonic improvements. The concept is straightforward: by increasing the contact between the vinyl and the platter, a record weight helps flatten the record. This improves tracking, reduces resonance, and minimizes the distortion often caused by warped records. If you’ve ever heard the wavering sound of a warped LP, you already know the value. Sometimes, the simplest upgrades make the biggest difference.
