I have a VPI Classic and i am using the Origin Live mat. My main table is an Origin Live and I ended up with two of their mats. I tried it after a few others including an older VPI mat, cork, acrylic, Herbies, and a few others. It continues to remain in use. As @testpilot stated mats are very subjective.
VPI felt mat vs aftermarket
I’ve been contemplating getting a mat for my VPI Classic. Mainly to avoid slippage when used without center weight and to avoid static in winter.
VPI now offers a very basic felt mat with their logo. It is cheap and looks nice. Has anyone had experience with that mat on their VPI classic platter? Another option I’m considering is going straight to Auditorium 23 Turntable Mat.

@dmk_hifi no I have not had any issues with the mats sticking to records and I frequently change records without stopping the platter. I also use a second OL mat on my Origin Live Sovereign mk3 TT. |
