Are you tired of your felt mat serving as a dust trap? Is the static electric buildup on your cork mat causing unwanted pops during playback? Static electric charge is generated during the handling and playing of your vinyl records, and felt and cork mats accumulate that static charge, which attracts dust and transfers it to your vinyl records. Static charge can also cause the annoying issue of the mat sticking to your LPs when you lift an LP off of your turntable.

If you've paid good money for a nice turntable with a solid aluminum or acrylic platter, why has the manufacturer decided to provide you with a felt or rubber platter mat?

By experimenting with genuine leather in various thicknesses as a platter mat material, I discovered that leather mats do not collect static charge, and therefore do not collect dust. Leather also dampens turntable vibrations without smearing the frequency response that the cartridge/tone arm/platter unit has been designed to capture and transmit.

Each platter mat has a thickness of approximately 1.5 mm (~1/16") and a diameter of 292 mm (11.5"), which ensures full support of the LP's playing surface, while still allowing a small margin of space around the edge of the LP (i.e., the groove guard) so the LP can easily be lifted from the platter without disturbing the platter mat. This mat has two, identical suede sides. Either side can be placed in contact with your platter and will provide a flat, non-scratch, non-slip, non-static surface for your vinyl.
