Maestro Record Clamp

Extracts unparalleled sound quality from analog records

Turntables produced today are more sophisticated, more reliable and simpler to use, while better and more expensive cartridges are marketed than those of yesterday. Dedicated analog record lovers continue to seek the ultimate sound reproduction from their records.

Turntables and cartridges may be very sophisticated, however, they must still overcome the main obstacle to produce maximum performance and sound quality from the analog records: the interference of resonances induced by the analog record itself and the turntable mechanisms employed in the tracking of the complex grooves inscribed on the record surface. Because better cartridges used in a record playing system will more faithfully reproduce source sound, these undesirable distortions produced by analog record resonances will annoyingly be heard more than ever. Conventional record clamps 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 in low frequencies, in fact most of the clamps merely trade one set of resonances for another.

Meet the new Harmonix TU-812MX “Million” Maestro Record Tuning Clamp. In its time-honored tradition, Combak has developed the TU-812MX to deal amazingly effective with all resonances of analog records and turntables by tuning the record itself and record platter assembly at a frequency outside the audio band. The results are astonishingly fantastic– musical clarity is greatly increased and the separation of musical instruments releases unprecedented depth of sound. An infinitely improved sense of reality makes for the kind of sound you have never, ever experienced before with analog records. The new TU-812MX record clamp lends solidity to much expanded soundstage, making it not only an extremely worthwhile contribution to the potential of any analog record, but a necessity, to the art of faithful and exquisite analog music reproduction. Try the new TU-812MX. You will be completely astounded!

Note: Any absorbing materials such as a rubber, vinyl and leather made mat, should not be used under the TU-812MX. Any absorbing objects will take away the delicate music nuances of the sound.
