Mats Are Important. Over The Last 20 Years The Quality Of Turntables And Records Has Improved Dramatically. The Cause Is The Sound Just Produced By The Speakers Coming Back To The Turntable And Causing It To Vibrate. The Problem Is That There Is A Very Slight Time Difference Between The Sound Being Reproduced And The Sound Being Fed Back To The Turntable. This Results In A Great Loss Of Detail And Clarity And Makes The Sound Muddy . So Every Effort Must Be Made To Isolate The Turntable From Its Surroundings As Well As Isolating The Record From The Turntable. This Is Done By Experimenting With Different Materials That Absorb Unwanted Vibrations That Were Not Present In The Original Recording. Now Many People Are Trying To Combine These Different Materials At The Same Time As A Sandwich To Get Better Results. To Reinforce The Better Contact Between The Record And The Mat, The Middle Part With The Dimensions Of The Label Was Recessed To Accommodate The Thicker Label Part. Diameter 295 Mm, Thickness 3 Mm
