Whats on your turntable tonight?

Michael Ponti plays Scriabin - 12 piano sonatas; 3 LP box set. Playing sides 5&6 : Sonata  #8, Sonata in E Flat, Sonata #9, and Sonata #10. VOX Box 1972

Pretty well recorded piano in this set. Hard to accomplish.

Yep, my initial reaction too. More lively, less ‘dead’. Slightly different soundstage and depth....more separation and definition. At least that’s my perception.

It’s hard to break from the ‘norm’, but may try this for a while.

I know one thing, the SOTA clamp seems to really ‘deaden’ the play more than my much less expensive Record Dr clamp, which I’ve been using for the last few days, which seems in between the SOTA and none.

@bkeske,

I like to say, the music is becomes "free" with the MyMat and no clamp/weight.

I noticed the same with the Achromat as well. I believe a reviewer for TNT Audio wrote something similar?
