Did you also get the center weight? I hear ya on the used records thing. I buy a lot of 'em too. Do you have plans to get the SDS?

No plans on getting SDS--I'm so thrilled with the way Lps sound over CD and even SACD, that I'm going to bask in my ignorance for awhile and enjoy the equipment as is.With regard to the center weight, my stereo salesman actually prefers the plastic one to the higher-end one. What do others think?
But that's a matter of personal preference I reckon. I like it because I prefer the consistency of a dead weight vs the screw down clamp that came with my Aries (and it's easier for me to get the damn ring thingy on right if I plop the weight on first).
I was under the impression that you were to use the center weight with the peripheral ring - that the stock clamp acts as a fulcrum on the rubber center disc, which is counter to the peripheral weighting of the ring.
should I take the washer out?
