What are the audio differences you hear with turntable Mats.
@atmasphere that’s the answer I was looking for. I have a 2 piece aluminum arm board now, I’m going to look for a billet aluminum arm board now. Thank you!

@jbhiller thanks, but didn't see any blank tapes

@jbhiller I have an Otari 5050, & finding NEW blank tapes are so hard. Rebuilding that card would open up a Rabbit hole (LOL), & I'm sure it'll be worth every cent. Good luck my fellow audio man.

Just my $.02, I'm a PROUD owner of the new Boston Audio Mat on my Technics GAE with an SME 309 arm. I've tried Herbie's way excellent, cork & rubber & Teac paper mats. All as you know have their own signature, but the BAM brings the best o...

Turntable choice for mono records
@lewm on my Technics GAE with an SME 309 arm, I switch from my Cadenza Black & Cadenza Mono, running to my Modwright 9.0. I can definitely hear a difference. With the  Mono, the base has more authority, & the music justs flows better.....😉  
Linlai KT88 experience?
I’m not surprised on how the Linlai tubes are as good as they are. I’m running the Global E in your personal pre-amp you sold me & like them as much as all my NOS JANs in my stash. I’m curious on how they would stack up against the K&R kt8... 
Ultrasonic cleaning
