Stainless steel center weight

I have an Aries II with the frosted platter. I'm currently using the black threaded delrin record clamp. I have come to notice that the sound is somewhat livelier if using less force on the clamp or with no clamp at all. I would like to buy the signature weight but was curious how many people use this without the periphery ring. Is it even a good idea to use alone without the ring?

I use it without a ring, no issues so far, but generally I feel like you should be using the ring tho... They wouldn't put on in for no reason... I suppose its general recommendation(for example, its general rec to fully load mags for stuff like Mac 11, but it just reduces the strain on the spring, not specifically a "never do" rule).
