Counterweight for 4" pads?

[Scimmia]

I was just wondering if people thought there was an advantage in using the 5" counterweight with the new SFX 4" pads instead of the 6" counterweight. I have a 7336 (6" counterweight) now, is it worth ~$10 for a 5" counterweight?

I'm not trying to start a flame war here or anything, I know the subject of counterweights is kind of up in the air. I searched and couldn't find anything relating to 4" pads, so I figured I'd ask.

Scimmia... I have the 6" weights loaded on both on my PC's and I do NOT change them out with the 5" weights, when I use 4" pads.

I guess using the 5" weight with the 4" pads might help a little, but I just do not find using the 5" weight necessary.

Just my 2 cents ...

I used to switch to the 5" CW when using the 4" pads but I got lazy and quit doing it. I haven't noticed any ill effects from sticking with the 6" CW all the time.

I guess I won't worry about it then. Thanks guys!

CMA told me that it's okay to use the 6" CW with 4" pads.

Try both weights and see what you like? They aren't that expensive.
