I have a Zerostat/Miltystat and IMO doesn't do anything.

@jjbeason14 The Technics SL1200 comes with a rubber mat and its the weakest part of the turntable. I use an Oracle mat which is much better. It is formulated to be about the same hardness as vinyl so is pretty good about absorbing resonance in the LP caused by the cartridge tracking it. You can hear this resonance. If the volume is all the way down and the LP is playing, ideally you would not be able to hear it while standing right next to the turntable. If the mat isn’t doing its job, you’ll hear the stylus tracking the groove quite easily. Once you have that sorted, you’ll find the mids and highs smoother and more resolving while the bass has greater impact. |
