VPI has offered platters made of aluminum, aluminum damped with lead, lead-damped aluminum with a top layer of Delrin (yes Delrin, not Acrylic ;-), stainless steel with a top layer of Delrin, a 3-layer Delrin/stainless steel/Delrin sandwich, and finally solid Acrylic. Each platter has it's fans, with the stainless steel/Delrin version a particular favorite. I myself favour Delrin for the LP/platter interface.

Please share your personal experiences, or familiarity with a close friend's TT.
