I have used a Boston Audio Mat2 on several different types of turntables, always with good results. There is no "best" mat; it's a matter of taste and perception.
Alternative mat for SME turntable
Hello, I have an SME 10 turntable, I was wondering if anyone out there has ever experimented with other mats instead of the delicate one that is placed on the platter of the SME tables. I tried an origin live mat and don’t think it worked very well, made the sound less clear. I know there was another thread several years ago regarding this same issue but no one ever answered the question.
