Anyone use a platter mat with their VPI?

My friend has a MMF-7 that has some sort of rubber mat that sits on the platter rather than felt. We took it on an off and were amazed at the difference in sound.

I've got a VPI Scoutmaster with the center weight and ring clamp. Has anyone added a mat? I never see it mentioned.

I sorta agree, but I found that I liked my VPI TNT (early version) much better with a Ringmat and without the supplied clamp. Haven't used a clamp since.
