PRO JECT Cork It Turntable Mat
Description
Sound tuning through replacement of platter mat! Turntable mats have been
always a big discussion how they influence the sound. The interaction between
the record and the surface can be tracked very easily by the supersensitivity
of a good pick up cartridge. Common felt mats give a smooth contact between
record and platter but has the disadvantage with static. That means that
feltmats often collect a lot of dust which can be then transfered to the
record. Also the damping ability is very limited which can be a problem with
metal platters. Thick rubbermats overdamp the record and have an isolation
effect which leaves the static on the record and hearable noise clicks are the
result. Resonances are damped more effectively than felt, they keep dust away
and they have also enough contactivity to avoid static. What is better depends
on taste and the actual platter design.A very costeffectiv way to improve the
sound and have less noise by static and dust. You can hear a difference!
