RingMat 330 Mk II XLR
Improve your turntable's performance at a very modest price!
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.
Available in three thicknesses, RINGMAT is a direct replacement for most felt and rubber mats on leading turntables, as well as most bare platters, including those made of acrylic and glass.
The five Ringmat models are as follows:
RINGMAT 200 about 1.8mm thick
RINGMAT 250 about 2.4mm thick
RINGMAT 330 MK II XLR about 3mm thick
Anniversary Ringmat 330 about 3mm thick
Except in the case of those few turntables which normally have an extremely thin rubber or felt mat and have no tonearm height adjustment, it is recommended that the Anniversary 330 or 330 MkII XLR should be chosen. Accordingly, Linn, Roksan, Rega and similar turntables should use one of the 330 Ringmats. If in doubt consult your local hi-fi dealer, supplier or Ringmat Developments as to which thickness you require for your turntable
The Ringmat is the Best Platter Mat Upgrade for Any Table without a Record Clamp!
A Stereophile Recommended Component.
RINGMAT is specially designed record support system and the
first which has been properly designed for the generation of an accurate, low
distortion signal. The RINGMAT is an excellent cork and fiber
mat made to replace those that come with many turntables, especially Linns,
Regas, Music Halls or any other turntable with a felt mat. They provide more
precise damping than rubber, Sorbothane or felt mats. Its unique design enables
LP's to be supported so the main vibrational modes of record movement, caused by
the input of stylus energy, do not effect the stylus and give you the maximum in
detail retrieval. This allows for improved tracking and a reduction in stylus
and record wear. With a RINGMAT on your table, you’ll hear a
significant reduction of background/surface noise with a cleaner, crisper and
more detailed sound. You will absolutely notice a much wider and deeper
soundstage; there is an enhanced sense of power, with greater weight and
authority in the bass. Try out a RINGMAT for yourself and hear
what you’ve been missing! Highly recommended by the Music Direct staff and so
many of our customers; you've gotta try this one! (Not to be used on
tables w/ heavy duty record clamps)
'For me, this is the only mat that has mattered on my turntable.
I can tell you that the new mat is superior to the old. I heard greater clarity,
focus, tighter bass, and a deeper, wider soundstage. Dynamics improved, too!'
