SP10mk2: OMA Graphite plinth vs.Dobbins plinth


According to the price lists they are in one category, but anyone could comment on quality/performance? At the moment i use big Teak Wood plinth (just $750) custom made in Taiwan for my SP10mk2. Looking for upgrade in the future. I use my sp10mk2 with Reed "12 tonearm now. Doest the plinth actually makes a big difference in sound? My stand is well damped with glass, metal and sarbothane in between.

1) Oswald Mill Audio graphite slate plinth (single layer) $2750, double layer looks fantastic but cost $3500

2) Steve Dobbins famous custom plinth cost $2650 including three Stillpoints feet and automotive show quality paint in black or white. Design has changed many times, still hard to find any current plinth picture online.

I know there are Albert Porter's and Artisan Fidelity quality plinth available, but i don't like the design (i mean just how it looks) for SP10.

This is very interesting, because the SAEC is a speciall alloy of only 870g in total.

.......mmmmhhh    perhaps the heavy weight does not mean everything.
chakster, the only other mat on my radar would be a stainless steel type.  Weight is a factor not to be dismissed but imho, it's not everything.  The Cu-500 is still Gunmetal.  During listening, I quickly ascertained my AF pure Copper platter mat was heads above the MS Cu-180 Gunmetal Copper alloy, so I had no real motivation to seek out their other mat but perhaps I will buy one to try anyway per your recommendation.  To clarify, does anyone know if the SAEC SS-300 compromised of any stainless steel at all?  At only 870 g it must be a type of lightweight aluminum alloy, no?  I presume by comparison measurements provided at the time by Micro they were referring to weight, density and resonant frequency...ect.  I had the hardened aluminum alloy Oyaide MJ-12 years ago and as I recall it was thin anemic sounding, not at all musical so I sold it.

@best-groove My good sir, welcome to the eccentric world of high end audio, nothing means everything! :)
 
@ ferrari275 

What does the pure copper mats do sonically that are heads and shoulders above the gunmetal copper alloy's like the cu-180?   in your opinion.
LOL.......it's nice to read about mat when the title of the 3ad asks for plinth he he he.
Dear @downunder :  """  any other mat I have tried... """

Try to found out the ATs and original SOTAs and test it vs what you already have, I'm sure that even your P3 will be an improvement.
