Copper Mat on Technics sp-10?

rubber like the sorbothane mats might dull the sound of your table.

SP-10 mats are sometimes available at Ebay.

There are countless posts on Technics mats, my favorites are Micro Seiki CU-180, Boston Carbon Fiber mat and Funk Firm (thick).

The Micro Seiki fits like it was made only for SP10 but will cost you a lot. The Funk Firm sounds good but has to have diameter reduced to fit inside the lip on SP10. The Boston needs nothing except put in place and use.

Which sounds best will depend on your taste, the cartridge and even the set up. I think the Micro Seiki is the most dynamic and cleanest but horribly expensive. The Boston is a contender for much less. The Funk Firm is another sound, harder than stock Technics mat but softer than the other two.

Fortunately you can drop a new mat into place, correct VTA and listen for yourself.

I use the TT Weight copper mat on my Technics SP-25/Triplanar combination.

Huge difference over stock mat.

Good luck.

PS
I have no financial/business affiliation with TT Weight.

My set-up (if it makes a difference regarding the mat) is a Graham Phantom and Sumiko Celebration or a Denon 103r (and I'd like to try a Benz Ebony LP).

Do mats tend to sound like their material, meaning copper and carbon fibre would sound more lively than rubber?

Thanks for the data. Jeff
