"Recommended Component" - Stereophile Magazine
Clearaudio's Outer Limit Turntable Ring is a record clamp with a difference. Instead of fitting over the spindle and sitting on the record label, the Outer Limit fits on the outer edge of an LP. Most LPs are warped to some degree, and the Outer Limit carefully and accurately presses your LP flat against the platter.
Outer Limit won a "Recommended Component" citation in the April 2003 issue of Stereophile magazine. According to Michael Fremer, it "blackened backgrounds, solidified images, and made them 'pop' in three dimensions."

Includes Spider Alignment Tool
Included with the Outer Limit is a Spider Outer Limit Alignment Tool, which temporarily sits on the spindle to help you center the Turntable Ring.
Please note that because of the Outer Limit's heavy-duty stainless steel construction, which adds weight to the platter, the Turntable Ring is recommended for turntables with massive platters and powerful motors.
In his August 2009 review of the Clearaudio Outer Limit and Clearaudio Twister Clamp used in combination, Jack Roberts of Dagogo.com noticed "quieter backgrounds, a more stable image, better musical flow and slightly better bass than you get without it... The Clearaudio Outer Limit Turntable Ring also gives me better speed stability and more drive." |
