I read, many moons ago, on a Japanese site featuring comments by people who seemed to know MS stuff reasonably well that the gunmetal platter was "meant for" solid state systems, and the stainless steel platter for tube amplification. I have no corroboration from anywhere else and it could well be wrong. Maybe Jcarr knows...
Micro Seki gunmetal platter
One of the attractions of MS turntables is their gunmetal platters. Often these will show wear and tear of three decades.
What platters are interchangeable? Is there a film on the metal or is it patina? How did the platters present when new? Were they brilliant or dull finish?
Finally has anyone had experience in restoring a platter removing light gouges or uneven colour?
