    After reading good reviews about the Origin Live Upgrade Mat, decided to give it a try. It is available at http://www.modularaudio.com.sg

     

    I was advised to used the OL mat directly on the platter itself, but this does not work well with my Technic's platter since it has a lip on the outer ring of the platter. The OL mat does not sit properly on the platter and it sounded bad.

     

    So I did several combinations, using the Technics stock rubber mat and the OL upgrade mat (with the VTA adjusted accordingly; the OL mat is 1mm thick):

     

    Rubber mat + OL mat on top

    Ruber mat + OL mat below

    Rubber mat reversed side + OL mat on top

    Rubber mat reversed side + OL mat below

     

    But did not like any of the combinations above...I still preferred the Technics stock rubber mat alone.

     

    So, I thought I had just wasted my moolahs on this purchase, until I noticed the Technics DJ slip mat that came with the turntable when I purchased it, which I have chucked aside. So decided to give it a try...

     

    And walah...finally found a combination that improves on the stock rubber mat, with the OL mat on top of the slipmat. Sounds like an unlikely combination, but it works, at least according to my ears:

    This was actually a Yes album consist of former Yes members from the band's "classic" 1970s period - due to contract issue, they are unable to use the Yes name, as the new group called themselves "Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe", or simply ABWH.

    I have totally forgotten this album. How good is it?

     

    Have not listen to the whole album...a bit noisy from the first track so stopped playing...will give it a good listen after I have a chance to wash it.

    never expect i'll own this album. who knows one fine night kds5000 visited me with this LP, playing side 2 track 1 by Chris Cornell - Promise, i was like ok, fine tune. later when he changed to side 1 track 1 - Ian Astbury - Ghost, this was the track that hooked me up! similar rock hard sound did by The Cult (Ian Astbury's band).

     

    the whole albumis truly enjoyable to listen. favourite tracks so far, Side 3 - Doctor Alibi (Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead) and side 1 - Ghost (Ian Astbury of The Cult).
