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...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] 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...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: Ultimate Turntable in Analog Playback  220 Replies 
[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] Ye...

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...

[quote 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...
