At just 1.1 inches tall and weighing 5.4 ounces (153 grams), it provides a low-mass solution that minimizes wobble and helps keep warped discs flat while you play or digitize vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the low profile design improve playback?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact height keeps the clamp compatible with tonearms and dust covers that have limited clearance, while still applying even pressure to the record.
