"""  I actually found a 12" round wood disk that I experimented with and drilled a hole to make it usable as a mat.
The highs are better and clearer. The base is tight. ""

Dear @totem395  : Your post is spot on. I posted on the same issue:

"  and with the rigth " treatment " in its production there is no reasons to think it does not works.. "

@rocky1313  : Btw, if wood works really fine in items extremely more sensitive than a TT mat as cartridges and tonearms ( I forgot: the Reed uses wood too. ) then go figure that it will works fine as a mat too. Btw too, wood came or comes in TT clamps with excellent results.

I'm still interested in your wood thickness: can you share it?

Appreciated,

Dear @rocky1313  : Through the audio years wood already proven as a very good building material and we can find out in TTs as the Ters one and other units, in cartridges as Koetsu, Vdh, Benz Micro, Dynavector, etc, etc, but in tonearms too as Durand, Da Vinci, Schroeder and other ones.

Wood is a material with long audio history and with the rigth " treatment " in its production there is no reasons to think it does not works as a platter mat. It can do it very well.
Your experiences in your sample say it works . Btw, which the tickness in your wood mat?

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
