Covering a naked platter- MMF 7 has no felt pad

I am a 'Budget' Audiophile re-entering vinyl after many years and just purchased a used MMF 7 in excellent condition. The original felt pad is missing, thus the platter is bare. The table & Goldring Eroica H sound fine as is, and I would appreciate the advice of experienced audiophiles. Leave as is or ? Also I'm using the interconnects that shipped with the table & would like to upgrade, are there other items useful to maintaining my MMF 7 & cartridge? Recommendations? I have a Disc Washer. Exposure 2010S amp with moving coil phone stage, NHT SuperOnes on stands,(yes I know, old, & still sound decent in my small apt)
Thanks in advance.

Hello Pushpull, Sorry I did not see the second part of your question.

I did not like the Erotic H and luckily broke it one day. For a lot cheaper you can do much better. YMMV.

Check out Raul's long,long,long MM thread and ask for advise there. He is usually very helpful.

Just don't mention distortions. LOL. (Just kidding Raul)

I use a Music Hall cork mat on my MMF 5 with good results. Have heard good things about the Herbie mats. Go with cork, it will improve your sound greatly.
