Re: Viscous absorbtion - trial and error?

Mark, with trying to model the interactions of materials being "much more complex" is platter and mat research mostly trial and error testing of various materials and thicknesses? Not necessarily a bad approach; some of mankinds (and certainly vinyl addicts!) most significant discoveries have been found that way.

And, like solid state vs tubes vs hybrids, where there probably isn't a "best" solution since people have different tastes in sound, are there generalizations about the type of sound you get depending on the platter and mat (and even cartridge) combinations?

Henry, I'm still getting things figured out with the whole system so haven't tried platter/mat combinations yet. But I'm paying attention to your discussions (and research!) on this topic.
