I have a Linn Basik Turntable with an Akito tonearm and Rega Exacta 2 cartridge. Would one expect a noticeable sonic difference when changing from a felt mat to a rubber and cork mat?
Just to clarify, I use the bare platter most of the time. Sometimes a recording is just too much. That’s when I throw on the MyMat to take the edge off without losing the essence. Being thin, there’s no need to adjust VTA. Disclaimer: Steve sent me an early version to try.
if you want to try out an inexpensive interesting mat try the washi mat by Teac, currently on sale on parts connection in CA , I,m getting good results with it on my Roksan Xerxes 20 , not staic like felt mats, its made oft thin japanese papyrus. YMMV but at least is around 20 bucks.
