turntable mats: should I use one?


I have a sota sapphire. I have never used a mat. Should I? If so, any recommendations?

Moonglum & Dave, Very well I will try the 233 g brass clamp again but if I remember correctly it doesn´t improve things because it may be too light with Reso-Mat.
Dear Dave & Harold,
Many thanks for the feedback. Looks like I may have been premature and unfair in my summation and perhaps should have tuned the Resomat a little? ;)

It may be that subconsciously I was thinking of the effects of offset centre hole drilling (which can be 2mm or more) meaning that the spikes would enter the actual playing area of the disc :O
This thought "creeps me out" slightly in the context of adding weights or clamps, even though I was fairly comfortable with the basic weight of the LP on the spikes.
;)

I know from experience that vinyl is a lot tougher than it looks. Have you seen any evidence of indents after applying pressure? (Dave?)
