But what is the rubber washer? Is something on the spindle? I don't understand. Is it the rubber mat supplied with the turntable?
If it is the mat that you are referring too, I take it off while listening as sound gets significant improvement without the mat on.
Another thing I am considering is one of these specialized mats made in carbon fiber like I said.
My question is this: is the carbon fiber mat going to make the sound better, not compared to the supplied rubber mat which is a given, but over vinyl in direct contact with the platter?
