Carbon Fiber Platter Mat

Analog Restorations — Limited Edition Carbon Fiber Platter Mat

Years in development here at Analog Restorations.

Designed with listening in mind....and it looks pretty awesome too.

We have always tried to push the boundaries and innovate new products. While a carbon fiber mat isn't exactly "innovation", it still was not an easy road to travel to deliver what we feel is an exceptional product. The issue we now face is that our excitement about what we created co-exists with what sounds like a sales pitch. So, without overdoing it, we will share some specifics of what allowed us to take this product too the next level. Beyond the carbon construction and clean matte finish we supported the base withe 8 A.R.C. Resonance Pads. These silica-based pads are designed to help control unwanted vibration while reducing the surface area in which vibrations can travel between your turntables platter and the mat. The goal we achieved is thoughtful vibration control, designed to work along with the carbon material, without over dampening and deaden the sound. This allows the music retain its energy and character.

We’ve put years into getting this carbon mat where we wanted it to be. This is truly something we’re proud to have made.

These are hand-made to order. Please allow up to 1-2 weeks for delivery.
