Any thoughts on a solid hickory platform under my tt

 Wood Does nothing for vibration sounds soft try Symposium Ultra Stealth. Im using on almost by entire system.However its your money wood is cheap!!

I use MM cartridge.
I also use one Walker Audio 1/2" resonance control disc placed on the maple platform next to but not touching the turntable motor. It tightens things up a little. But when I placed the second disc next to where tonearm was, it made the sound worse, though it certainly absorbed more energy. So, I still think that tuning in a general sense of the word is the way to go.

As always, ebm has the most impecable ear of us all.

inna i was joking ..
bdp i have built my entire system to be as nuetral as possible.Personnally just my opinion ,i doubt i would notice or hear a difference in almost any material with the mounting i have.and you are correct i do not want the platform to do anything other then look good and not add anything.Thats why i was asking about the hickory i had a line on it cheap .I would perfer walnut as my classic is walnut.But i am searching out granite, corian or wood options(honestly i would perfer it to be black so i may stain or paint it ).I have 6"thick walls and a steel wallmount stand with massive isolation..my floors are rock solid i can have my table on top of my stand shelf mdf (spiked and filled with sand) and jump on my floor and nothing comes through my table.with it on the wall i could sit on the shelf .i was just curious on opinions thats all ..

They are beautiful and i'm sure amazing.I am haveing problems finding pricing on them.I have a nice system to me but i would say modest around these parts.although i am sitting down    ; )
