Even the extraordinary advancements in digital sound reproduction of the last decade have not discouraged dedicated vinyl LP fans from continuing to seek the ultimate sound reproduction from analog sources. If anything, turntables produced today are more sophisticated, more reliable, and simpler to use than those of yesterday. These turntables, however sophisticated, must still overcome the main obstacle to producing maximum performance sound from the vinyl LP: the interference of resonance induced by turntable mechanisms employed in the tracking of the complex groves inscribed on the record surface.
Because better cartridges used in a record playing system will more faithfully reproduce source sound, these undesirable distortions caused by vinyl resonance will be heard. Conventional matte and clamp attempt to address this problem by simply pressing the LP down against the turntable in an effort to quiet such non-musical vibrations. While effective in some frequency ranges particularly the low frequencies in fact these clamps or, matte merely trade one set of resonance for another.
Enter the HARMONIX TU-800EXi (LP Record Matte) and or TU-812MK2 (Tuning Record Stabilizer Clamp). In its time-honored tradition, COMBAK has developed the TU-800EXi LP matte and TU-812MK2 clamp to deal effectively with all resonance of the LP and turntable by tuning the record platter assembly at a frequency outside the audio band. The results are astonishing-musical clarity is greatly increased, and the separation of musical instruments releases unprecedented depth of sound. An infinitely improved sense of reality and palpability make for the kind of sound experienced only during a live musical performance.
The HARMONIX TU-800EXi matte and TU-812MK2 clamp lends solidity to much expanded soundstage, making it not only an extremely worthwhile contribution, but a necessity, to the art of faithful and exquisite analog music reproduction.
TU-812MK2 Tuning Analog Record Clamp
New TU-812Mk2 tuning clam has been designed for sophisticated analog music listeners. Mark-2 lends solidity to much expanded and three-dimension soundstage that never ever experienced before, making it not only an extremely worthwhile contribution but a importantly necessity to the art of faithful and exquisite analog music reproduction.
