Turntable Mat question

Next stop, Graphene mats. Hel-loo!

Tried the Boston mat and it killed the sound. Yes, it made things quieter and more controlled but it robbed the music of soul. Almost like going from a great original analog pressing to a remastered CD.

Sorry, i was wrong about the measurement of my platters, so i delited my post regarding The Mat vs. Micro Seiki mat.

The Mat (aka BA mat, 293mm diameter) should be fine for Technics platter. But Sakura Systems does not ship overseas.

But i prefer Micro Seiki gunmetal mats anyway.

Nobody here heard a turntable with vacuum hold down? Basis, SOTA and Air Force take things to a whole new level. Walker also.
