I don't doubt that. I don't know what table you're using, but I've had two people tell me it robs the Rega RP3 of dynamics. . . and I have a Rega RP3 and love the dynamics. So I'm leary.

And Herbie's aren't necessarily going to say the mats aren't as compatible with Rega's.

I believe you. I just have a Debut III. Nothing great.

I would like to try a Herbie's mat after I can afford a better amp. Your post has encouraged me.

Buy this kind of carbon brush.

Bristle gently against a grounded amp or something like that.

Then again bristle your static record.You remove now the static load.

That`s all.

Wow. That's good to know. Thanks for the tip.

That looks interesting. Thanks.

I have one of those too. Works fine.

I will add an additonal two cents about that brush above too. I've been using one for going on fifteen years and I wouldn't think of not owning one or using it every time I play an lp. I always use it on a newly purchased used record before I clean it. I don't have a machine so I have a manual cleaning technique but that brush is very good it removing loose dust/dirt on the record.

Yep, this is the one I use, too.

I've got a generic brand one as well, but didn't know about the excellent advice re- brushing on a grounded appliance to de-static the vinyl
