HEAVY Platters. Metal or Plastic? Your personal Experiences

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. 
My understanding about mass of a platter is highly dependent on the overall design of the motor and TT.

😁 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.
