Another AR modification that was conceived and designed by George Merrill and then later refined by Anthony Scillia.  The stock mass-produced aluminum AR outer platter is notoriously resonant.  This high quality acrylic platter is machined with a recess in the underside to fit rigidly with the stock AR drive platter. The platter is the first step to take in moving toward the Merrill Platter System: the Vinyl Nirvana acrylic Platter, the Merrill-Scillia Lead Mat, the Outer Periphery Clamp Ring and a record weight.  The platter system is your ultimate goal in performance upgrades and should be, in my opinion, the “prize” for all mid-80’s AR owners.

Specifications:

• .45 thickness at edge
• Drop in replacement
• Individually CNC milled from highest quality stable acrylic
• Individually hand finished to exacting standards
• Recess machined on underside specifically for the AR drive platter
