A key step is isolating the actual vinyl record from the turntable platter itself. Quality cartridges are extremely sensitive, and can easily detect interactions between your record and the platter surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003eStandard felt mats have poor anti-static characteristics, which attracts dust to your precious vinyl. They are often too thin for effective acoustic control of platters, especially those made from metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003eOn the other hand, thick rubber mats can isolate the record from your turntable too much. This makes the record vulnerable to static build-up, and can result in noise and clicks during playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003eAs the name suggests, Cork \u0026amp; Rubber-it uses a carefully blended mix of cork and rubber to offer the acoustic control of rubber alongside the anti-static properties of cork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003eCork \u0026amp; Rubber-it is available in a 3mm thickness, making it a suitable choice for turntables with thin metal platters. The thicker mat provides additional thickness to help achieve the right balance of acoustic control for your turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Try the thick 3mm mat on thin metal platters!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pro-Ject","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62923238211665,"sku":null,"price":89.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1906\/7833\/files\/CorkRubberit-1.webp?v=1682371183","url":"https:\/\/www.soundroom.ca\/products\/pro-ject-cork-rubber-it-turntable-mat-3mm","provider":"The Sound Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
