Re: The HW-19 I bought in the 80's had an aluminum platter, I kept it ...

I had one too Garth. It wasn't that bad. In those days the idea was to find a worthy pad to put on top of it. Some have written in this forum that they still prefer a good pad to the clamp method. Linn used (and still does I think) a felt pad. There were no screw down clamps then. The only thing VPI offered at the time was a record weight. It was just a short heavy metal cylinder with a rubberized bottom.

When VPI came out with the acrylic platter and the two piece clamp I switched.
