Anyone use a Ringmat on a TT


No mat? felt? Ringmat? I know you guys who are into vinyl can give me the pro's and con's. ( I have a Music Mall MMF-7...before you ask me what TT I have...LOL!)

sean....or anyone ..... setting your TT on a marble block? Is that supposed to help? My rack is heavy and with the 80lb Bryston amp on the bottom shelf would seem to be enough??????My room is on a concrete slab plus carpet.
Mlbattey, I have mine on a marble block, but I added Black Diamond cones on top of the marble, and topped it with a their pure carbon graphite "shelf". I also have a concrete slab plus carpet, but my stands terminate in spikes through the carpet. I would still be concerned that your Bryston anchor does not defeat all of the vibration that can ascend the stand anyway. Vibration is pernicous and follows any available path. But if you are following the above, my TT is so flawed in design that all countermeasures are mere band-aids on the real problem.
Aceto, i have a question for you if you don't mind. Which model AR turntable do you have and between the AR and the Linn, both in stock form placed on the same support surface, which one is more susceptable to air-borne acoustic feedback and / or heavy footfalls / floor-borne vibrations? Sean

My AR is the ES-1. By stock, the Linn has had all the factury additions, so what do you have in mind there? Just remove the new Ringmat and use the old one? As for floor-borne, this house has none that get through the stand. I can jump up and down. But I can switch the tables and check for the air-borne. I was getting something on the Linn with the old Ringmat on certain passages when really loud. I have never had the AR in this system.
I had the Aniversary Ringmat on my P25 and liked the results. Improved definition and bass. I did not like it on my Spacedeck.
