The Yamamoto RS-1 record weight / stabilizer is an outstanding accessory for audiophiles and vinyl enthusiasts that will take your record playback to a new level of sound. Made from high-quality gunmetal, this 380-gram record weight offers optimal stability and vibration dampening. The special functional design of the RS-1 is located on the underside of the stabilizer. This means that the record weight does not rest with its entire surface on the record, but only with a 1 mm wide surrounding bead. This means that the record is only touched in a narrow, defined area on the outer edge of the record label. This means that the record and thus the sound image are not over-damped and do not lose dynamics. Nevertheless, the weight is effectively connected to the record.
The RS-1 record weight is made of gunmetal, a special cast alloy that combines copper, zinc and tin. This alloy is not only robust, but also resonance-damping, which helps to minimize unwanted interference during playback. Gunmetal is also anti-magnetic, which means that no interference can occur with pickups. The surface of the RS-1 is covered with a silver coating called "Ibushi", which gives it an elegant look. With a diameter of 84 mm and a height of 20 mm, this record weight is compact and fits easily on any turntable. With a weight of 380 grams, it can be used on mass drives, direct drive and subchassis turntables. The Yamamoto RS-1 record weight is an all-rounder with a minimal contact surface that keeps the tracking of your records precise and stable. If you want to get the most out of your vinyl collection, the RS-1 record weight is an indispensable addition.
