Jérôme.......That individual is deep into vinyl, no doubt about it.
Using an outer edge clamp might yield some damping to the vibrations induced by the stylus in the album during playback, but using the spindle clamp makes the most sense to me. It couples the vinyl to the platter, essentially doing the same thing. An outer edge calmp, such as the one in the video, would be a proprietary device that would have to be manufartured exclusively for the turntable platter it was to be use on, otherwise a perfect fit would be impossible because all turntable platters are not the same diameter. Futhermore, were the vinyl slightly warped, the clamp would not set flush to the entire circumference of the outer edge of the album, and this would not be an advantage, in my opinion.
