Goka GK-R30 Acrylic LP Anti-Slip Mat

Acrylic turntable mats are considered good because they effectively reduce static electricity on records, provide a consistent surface for the stylus to grip, and can potentially improve sound quality by dampening vibrations due to their similar resonant frequency to vinyl records, resulting in a cleaner and more detailed soundstage.

• Vibration damping:

  Acrylic’s material properties closely match those of vinyl, allowing it to absorb and dampen vibrations from the platter, leading to a more accurate sound reproduction. 
• Improved clarity and soundstage:

  By reducing unwanted vibrations, acrylic mats can potentially enhance the overall clarity and depth of the soundstage. 
• Consistent surface:

  The smooth, flat surface of an acrylic mat provides a stable and even contact point for the stylus, ensuring consistent playback.
