I have never heard a mat, but I would bet that none of them are designed to work with changers.
CD Mats
I got a free copy of the Aurex CD mat as a bonus item with some other things I ordered from an audio dealor. I tried it out with my player (Sony 222ES SACD/CD)and could hear only an extremely subtle improvment in sound quality. I was wondering what other people's experiences have been with Aurex and other CD mats (SID, Blacklight, etc.) Has anybody heard significant improvement with one of these things?
Two factors that might have influenced my experience:
1. The test CD had already been "tweaked" with Mapleshade Mikro-smooth, Auric Illuminator, and Mapleshade Ionoclast. Perhaps there were not many errors left to eliminate.
2. My player is a changer model. The mat might be de-centering as the tray rotates backwards.
