Pro-Ject Cork It Cork Mat for Turntables
The effect of Pro-Ject Cork It Cork Mat for Turntables on sound quality has long been a controversial topic.
Common felt mats allow for gentle contact between the record and the platter, but have problems with electrostatic charge. This can lead to large accumulations of dust on the mat and the record. The dampening effect is also limited, which can be particularly problematic with metal turntables.
Thick rubber mats usually dampen too much and also prevent electrostatic charges from being dissipated from the record, which leads to noticeably more crackling and popping.
Leather and cork are two completely different but very interesting alternatives. Both dampen resonances better than felt, do not attract additional dust and can dissipate electrostatic charges. What is better for your turntable depends on both personal preference and the material of the turntable.
A very cost-effective method of improving sound quality and reducing background noise caused by dust and electrostatic charge. You can hear the difference!
