SP-10 Mat

I have an SP-10 with a Micro-Seiki copper mat. Now that my system is dialed in in terms of room acoustic treatments and speaker placement I find the Micro-Seiki mat to be a bit too lively but outstanding in terms of dynamics and soundstage. The stock rubber mat is too dull and bloated.

Could someone suggest a mat that falls in between the two, leaning more towards the copper mat sound than stock but less forward in the midrange and treble.

There is a seller on eBay that sells replicas of the MS CU mats, I have bought over 30 of them from him in various configurations, including custom made mats for my DN308 builds and DP6 / 7 builds too.

Below a link to a current listing, no affiliation other than being a satisfied customer.

I too greatly prefer the sound produce with a Copper platter over any rubber mat.


Good Listening
