[QUOTE="Ingvar Ahlberg, post: 842061, member: 15447"] There are certainly TT:s where slippage will be nonexistent, for instance Thorens that has a slightly oversize centre pin, the record has to be pressed down on the platter, but i have both seen and heard the slippage on otherwise excellent TT:s. But the most important part is the bad transfer of the vibrational energy from the record to the platter. Replacing the rather poor rubber mat on a TD-150, magical TT, to a good mat makes a tremendous difference, there are a lot of good mats on the market in different materials and with differnt philosophy/aims behind. Making Your own high quality mat is simple and quite rewarding, one very good and easy to get/cheap material is soft leather/hide wich i would think You would have several sources for.
