Original Ringmat Developments Turntable Mat
Original Ringmat Developments Turntable Mat VG condition-3mm thick cork-paper RINGMAT is a new method of record support and the first that has been properly designed for the generation of an accurate, low distortion signal. It's unique design enables 12" records to be supported so that the main vibrational modes of record movement - caused by the input of stylus energy - give the minimum possible error signal. This allows for improved tracking and, as a result, a reduction in stylus and record wear. With RINGMAT, there is a reduction of background noise with a cleaner, crisper and yet more delicate sound, together with a wider and deeper soundstage; there is an enhanced sense of power, with greater weight and authority in the bass. The benefits of the Ringmat really come to fruition, with a further degree of tactile realism, a greater firmness and accessibility to the sound. It all just goes to show that there really is more in the grooves to be dug out and, no matter how futile it may seem in this digital age, that we can still go on enhancing our enjoyment of those old vinyl treasures.

Currently available in two main thicknesses, RINGMAT is a direct replacement for most felt and rubber mats on leading turntables, as well as all bare platters, including those made of acrylic and glass, provided they are flat. Remember, the Ringmat was designed for the acrylic platter of the DNM ROTA turntable, initially using a Linn LP12.
