The Funk Firm Achromat
The Famous and Critically Acclaimed Funk Firm Achromat Turntable Platter Mat: Among the Most-Effective Budget Tweaks for Any Turntable or System.
Your turntable’s stylus accelerates at up to 20,000g. Your records’ groove walls are not so much caressed as pummeled like a jackhammer. Energy reflected from the bottom of an LP (a mere 2mm thick) is sensed by the stylus and heard as coloration. Funk Firm Achromat platter mat is the ideal material to absorb energy from the record. At only 3.5mm or 5mm thick, Achromat contains millions of tiny bubbles within complex pathways where the energy gets lost as heat and performs like a much-thicker mat. Simple A-B comparisons demonstrate improved, subtle nuances and more bass intelligibility. This is one of the finest, affordable, and insanely effective analogue tweaks available.
Available in 3mm or 5mm thickness variants.
Colours: Black, White, Yellow, Red, Green, Blue
