To Antonio,
it is not necessary to “to find some mat with those characteristics of yours”. The characteristics of mat would be applicable only I context of the TT you use (platter, suspension and so on). With my Micro 8000 that has very dead soundi...

[quote user="Antonio J."]Dear Romy, thanks for your comment. I actually don't want the mat to do "something" for me sonically, but to teach me how far I'm I of my ideal. Knowing your goals and taking for granted that the 8000's platter must be rather...

I do not think that anyone would be able to “teach” and I do not thin that there is nothing to teach about the mats. A good “sounding” platter does not require any “actions” from mat and the hard rubber mats do exactly...

[quote user="Antonio J."]Which one? Where can I find it? how much is it? What's it made of?
I've tried a few mats and I always found in all of them some added "colorature". I've not tried any of the "audiophile approved" ones since I didn't expect a...

I have to agree with Wellington. To be fair we both use stainless steel platters (heavier than stock) and use CU-180 mats to damp the platter which ensures an almost dead platter, way better than any acrylic, hard rubber and felt mat I have tried. St...

My first post here, although I have read some of
the discussions on this site over the years.
I wanted to share my experience with my Micro Seiki RX-5000 and resonance
control of its heavy platter. I have seen posts here befo...

[quote user="Stitch"]… they have 2 weak features - a Platter which rings- no suspension[/quote] No arguments here BUT how the Platter Ringing and No Suspension impacts sound? I mean we can take a hummer, smack the platter and observe ringing. However...

[quote user="hagtech"] I'm not convinced a constant side load on bearing is good. It causes assymetrical wear. Just seems to me a center balanced bearing with no lateral loads would be better. Merely an intuitive hunch. [/quote]

The Ultimate turntable only needs to provide for one arm. The ultimate arm. Why compromise its performance with various inferior arm designs.
I'm not sure that high mass is necessarily a good thing. Yes it stores a large amount of kinetic ener...

user="Wellington"]Perhaps the best test is to
play well-recorded piano which runs up and down the scales. Notes exciting
resonances may sound slightly louder, with more smearing and sustain. When
resonances are vanquished, the music flows ...

[quote user="jam"] (maybe another RX-5000 as a
flywheel might work?) If not set up correctly(which can be a pain) it can cause
problems. [/quote]
In my case use the RX-5000 as a flywheel did not work. I
mean it “worked” well from mechanical per...
