Turntable Mats for Technics Grand Class, "G" Series

I have the original anniversary edition Technics 1200 GAE.  Shortly after I got it way back in like 2016, I put the rubber turntable mat aside and began using a leather and cork matt from Wooden Bull. See https://woodenbull.com.  I never looked back.

Recently, I pulled out a Ringmat and noticed a more robust sound with more definition in the low end. 

I'd like to try another. Recommendations?

I like the OEM heavy rubber platter mat that came on my JVC Victor TT81. Seems appropriately firm to provide stability without transmission. I use a center weight, sadly peripheral ring type weight I tried won’t work on this platter’s edge.

I was reading an old thread about cartridges yesterday, and I came across Chakster saying the ONLY platter mat he was using at that time, on all his TT’s was

Saec SS-300 alloy mat

I made a note to check it out, I see there was an SS-300MK2

Any comments about it from others ..........................?
