And that is exactly the point where I feel the MN-copper-alli-platter has a clear advantage over the FF-platter (and the original!). Higher mass simply means more rotational stability = rhythmic security.
The original platter (perfectly damped with an SDS isoplatmat) topped off with a Timestep/Herbie's mat was clearly inferior to the MN-copper-alli-platter also topped off with the TS/Herbie's. The Boston Audio mat 1 is even better (never tried an Achromat because I dont like "plastic" on my TT).
