I have tried a few mats with different results. I find the glass gives a good sound reproduction. Instruments come across very clear compared to the rubber mats Ive used. I have found rubber mats gave a good tight bass but made the music more muddy if that makes sense. I have heard a lot about the standard platter supposedly ringing but with the 3mm glass mat(Very heavy) I find this is the perfect match. I have looked at the Oyaide mats but not cheap and not sure if I would gain anything over the costs.
Mat fits perfect
