Any experience with Copper Mat on Raven One


Hi Musiclovers!
Considering big brother AC having copper layer in its platter I´m curios how it would sound on a Raven.
I know it`s not a fair comparison with just a copper mat on top because AC platter has more of other material than copper/delrin.
Obviously there are more technical calculations and know- how brought into producing. But still, could sound improve?
I should direct this question to Thomas Wosnick himself, maybe they have tested already or even used same type of AC platter (obviously modified to suit) on Raven.
Hmmmm....

Not that this has anything to do the Raven, but I just got a TTW solid copper platter mat, and I'm liking what it does for my modified Scout Signature. An extra four pounds of copper helps add inertia and mass, for greater speed stability. The lp/copper mat interface brings greater clarity and better bass. When bought on auction at $139, it's a fairly inexpensive tweak, and I think, a very effective one.

Regards to all,

I agree Dan I have one myself on my Replinthed Lenco it defintely makes things better
Thanks guys, interesting.
I´ll try, never know unless you`ve tested.
As mentioned it´s a cheap test.

Have a nice weekend!
Clabe Take a look at Stereomojo on line. There is a recent review of the ttweights system, copper platter, outer ring and central weight, on a Raven one. It was moderately favourable. I had a look at ttweights at RMAF recently. Very high quality and an enthusiastic designer.
I asked Graham Tricker at GT Audio in the UK, who imports the Raven, about weights and platter mats. As you may know, the Raven One in the UK at least, came with a millenium mat and centre weight, initially, not now. He was not impressed that they made much difference, though of course an outer ring and central weight, can help with warped records.
Hope thats hepful
I own a Raven one and met Thomas Woschnik, asking him about using a copper mat. He advised against doing so, bcs he said that in order to work correctly, the copper would have to be fixed to the rest of the table, as it does with the Raven AC. Having said that, my previous TT, a Scheu Premier came without a mat, and then-owner Thomas Scheu advised me against using one. When I added the Living Voice Mystic Mat, however, it was of the best upgrades I ever made. So you have to try for yourself, I think, probably the TTW is worth a try if they offer a trial policy.
