Anyone try both the Funk Achromat and the Boston Audio Design "The Mat"? I'd be interested in comparisons as these both have strong supporters. Not cheap but user reports seem to confirm both offer a significant SQ benefit compared with felt, rubber or other aftermarket mats.

In regards to cleaning machine, I want something effortless. Is there a better alternative without paying crazy money.
Thank you!

I use a Monks. I've tried a variety of fluids, including the one Monks offers, the "new" Torumat branded "Groovy Fluid" or some such by Brooks Berdan, Walker's 3 and 4 step fluids, Hannl fluid from Germany (thanks @Syntax), Audio Intelligent and a few others. For deep cleaning I use the AIVS #15 with the unidirectional pad from the Walker kit, for a mild clean I still like the Hannl with a Monks brush but the concentrate is no longer available in the U.S. so at some point I'm going to have to find another fluid when I run through my remaining stash. Everybody has their favorite. Easy enough to buy a few brands and try them. I use reagent grade 1 water to rinse.
