Yes I have one actually... not the best made thing Ive ever bought. 3 ball-bearings jammed in holes, and mine were not level. I'd pass, but if you do buy one I think the bigger versions would be the best.
Look good though

Hi Grant, not really after one but curious regards if they 'work' / sonic benefits ? :)

sounded ok tbh, but the mat with the little spikes that I cant remember the name of was way better... as I say mine was the smaller version(painted fancy), I think the bigger one ight be better but that mat I had was very good.

The seller kirdon image is quite good and I got my TT lamp off him

Hi ya Ali, I've never ever really got on with the whole mat thing to be honest. What I mean is I've tried all manner of mat, Sound hifi, the Speed, Achromat and numerous others over the years and always found the stock (Technics 12XX) 3mm softish (not the rock hard thing) to be the most natural / not get in the way of the music for me, even on my ETP. I've never liked what these so called 'upgrade' mats do it's never been for the so called 'better' to my ears - different yes! :) as they say nowt so queer as folk :lol:
