    Default Wanted: To Buy or Borrow: Funk Firm Achromat

    Hello everyone.

    I don't suppose anyone has one of these lying around for me to try?

    For some reason I can't seem to cope with the idea of spending 60 odd quid on a mat that I have no idea will be to my liking.

    Regards,

    Frank

    I've a blue Achromat which was used on a 301 to compare with cork, rubber etc.
    I don't have a problem lending this out for you to trial.
    PM your details if of use.

    Hi Frank, we run the same turntable albeit it with a different arm/cart so I would be interested to know your thoughts on the mat when you get it...

    Just out of interest where abouts are you in London?
    In - Tweaked Lenco GL75, Linn Ittok, Ortofon Cadenza Black
    Through - Croft Micro 25 RS LS, power R monoblocks, RIAA R. Ortofon ST-80 SE SUT.
    Along - Tellurium Q Ultra Black cables
    Out - Harbeth SHL5 Plus XD's
