RE: Ceramic

I must be a tin ear or have never had good enough equipment to resolve differences between mat materials. Maybe now that I'm upping my game I will begin (or at the very least THINK I will be) hearing differences.

I thought the sound absorption or dampening properties of certain metals would be interesting for other parts of the turntable as well. Maybe ceramic sucks as a platter material, but would do well as a plinth?

I was especially curious about the "oil impregnated bronze" vs "dry bronze". If nothing else a turntable with bronze parts would look really nice. Bronze and Burl....mmmmmmm yeahhhhh.
