There's got to be a reason they go to the bother of putting those extra weights there.
HEAVY Platters. Metal or Plastic? Your personal Experiences
I'm looking for a friend, new and used. Aside from everything else:
Various platters, heavier, a bit heavier, a bit thicker, all plastic, metal, plastic/metal sandwich.
Please share your personal experiences, or familiarity with a close friend's TT.
thanks, as always!!
Elliott

I bought a beautiful Woodsong Garrard 301. It came with a Tenuto gun metal mat. Think it added several pounds to the machined Woodsong platter. The Tenuto mat was outperformed by a Oracle acrylic mat. Which is now outperformed by my current titanium impregnated Oyaide mat. |
😁 I think I would take that bet…. And it would be a blast to determine the winner. I did a lot of research before buying my Linn… one of the only contenders was a Soto… my research and my turntable expert both concurred that in this time Linn wins easily… I will admit to liking the Walker… it has vac. Hopefully at some point I can get one and figure out which of us would win. But I would win either way. |
@ghdprentice I do not think you would do well with the Walker. Probably get tangled in the hoses. It proves there are humans that will by anything. @twoleftears There sure is a reason. It looks nice. I wonder if they will fall out if you turn it over? @mglik I think you'd better stick to the mats. |
