....than just a simple weight.
There are 5 pads in the underside that couple via ceramic balls to the upper weight. The idea, I gather, is to couple small vibrations in the vinyl to the weight.
Whether this works I don't know - but there seems to be positive reviews and user reports.
I can see why this device would cost more to manufacture than a simple machined metal weight.
Personally, I see more 'value' here than a lump of African ebony root.
