Bare got it right. It's the naked truth.
Clamping, using any of the many modalities available, is ultimately a matter of taste, and one's preference may even vary from LP to LP. You can buy a decent clamp for reasonable bucks; I do not advise relying upon "public" opinion to make this choice. (Stay away from the $3500 Durand weight, until you've made up your mind pro or con, however. That one would be tough to unload if you decide to be a no-clamper.)
I used to eschew the use of a clamp. Now I am religious about using one. But I would not bother with a peripheral ring, even though it might be beneficial in some cases, because of the aggravation involved, and I did not care for the effect of vacuum hold-down when once I owned a SOTA Star Sapphire with that feature. But that's just me. Ignore me, and decide for yourself.
