Not sure what Pro-Ject you have, but my old Pro-Ject Debut Carbon had no VTA adjustment, and I would actually use various mats to change it, or when I went to the acrylic platter, none. As I said, and Steve pointed out, his MyMat is very thin, and should have little to no effect as mentioned.
Here’s the thing, the difference between a 140 and 180 gram LP is probably more a difference than the MyMat, and I know I don’t change the VTA when playing one or the other. In other words, the difference is too small for the hassle to make the adjustment for the weight of the vinyl I play at any particular time.
Steve’s mat is great, and something you should try. Good thing is, it can go on a new table/platter should you decide to move on from the Pro-Ject. Nothing lost, only gained.
