Best Platter Material


With different turntable platters being used out there, is there one that is better over amother for vinyl playback?

The most common materials I've come across include:
- aluminum
- acrylic
- glass
- delrin
- ceramic
- copper

Also, if using some sort of platter mat (felt, rubber, cork, etc.) does it even matter which material is being used for the platter?

Stanwal is absolutely right. I would never have thought, for instance, that a solid state phono preamp could satisfy me. Tube are better than SS. That's until I heard an ASR Basis. Now tubes be damned (sort of). It's all execution. And also execution. And he's especially right about the third thing.
