Hi Guys
My brother has got a 1210 and I'd like to get him a decent platter mat to replace the standard rubber one. Any recommendations out there? Thanks!

Oyaide BR-12 looks cool on the technics and works well. I use one on a 1510.

Hi Mike, that sounds good- unfortunately it's a Christmas present and I need to buy it abroad to get there in time...Originally Posted by mikeyb

There are a lot of different turntable mats out there with different materials and solutions for better sound. I use the previous Oyaide model MJ-12 on the SL-1200 which works great for me.
Some more alternatives here that are a bit different in approach:
Pluto Audio Copper & Carbon Mat
https://www.kempelektroniksshop.nl/p...opper-mat.html
SteinMusic Perfect Interface mat

The two above are very thin and can be used on top of the existing Technics mat.
This is a replacement for the existing mat:
