So what did you end up choosing?

Or did you go with a DIY option?

I started with Butter Rugs years ago, and haven't ever switched to anything else.

If I was doing it again I would probably just buy the cheapest one that says it's for scratching.

i was just looking for info. butter rugs are the only scratch mats i know of, i like my original technics slipmats but is the difference noticable?

As in the rubber mat that came with the turntable?

[LeeJay]

not the rubber mat. my technics 1210mk5g came with slipmats but no cartridges before them i had 1210mk2 which came with stanton 500 cartridges but no slipmats

Was it a used (secondhand) turntable? I've never heard of Sl-1200/1210 turntables coming with slipmats, I didn't know that was a thing.

Only other performance scratching slipmats are Dr Suzuki Tablecloths.

But yeah...Qbert & Yogafrog signed my 'Rugs and they transfer their skills through osmosis. So I stick with them.
