Achromat


Im think of trying an Achromat on my LP-12. Would I be better off going with the 3mm than the 5mm?

this is purely my opinion/logic - if you have enough spindle height to use the 5mm, go with it, otherwise use the 3mm. If you're not using a clamp (which you shouldn't really need with the achromat) then spindle hight probably isn't an issue.

Also - if you go to the Funk Firm website and send them an email you may get their (more authoritative) guidance.
Well, since the stock felt mat is pretty thin and I'm working with a suspended TT, I ended up ordering the 3mm Achromat. Less tinkering. I have a nonefelt/speed mat on my other turntable that I'll be able to swap for some comparison.
