A synthetic dampening layer is added for musicality, and a UEF treatment is applied between the carbon fibre disc and the dampening layer — a first for Synergistic Research in this product category. This first version is voiced for an overall, broadly balanced presentation rather than being tuned toward one specific characteristic. It measures 12 inches in diameter, 2mm thick, and weighs 3.5 oz. As an authorized Synergistic Research dealer in Toronto, Canada, Vinyl Sound can help you find the right mat for turntables such as our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rega-planar-3-turntable\" bis_size='{\"x\":411,\"y\":206,\"w\":84,\"h\":19,\"abs_x\":411,\"abs_y\":206}'\u003eRega Planar 3\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/dr-feickert-blackbird-turntable\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":206,\"w\":532,\"h\":38,\"abs_x\":12,\"abs_y\":206}'\u003eDr. Feickert Blackbird\u003c\/a\u003e.
