I have had the 1200G for a little over a year. It takes a while to figure out what works best. Its a great table even without upgrading the arm which I am sure takes it to a completely different level. I like mine with torque turned down completely and stock arm with original headshell. I would like to try that oracle mat. I am currently using the older Boston audio "The Mat" and a Lyra Delos at 1.72 grams with matching anti skate. Sounds pretty good to me
