Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable

What to put under the butcher block? Springs. Duh!

pop Quiz - What is the reason why the butcher block should be thicker rather than thinner?

Funny.  I stuck some 4" squares of leftover carpet from my office under my board.  Works great.

 Pour some maple syrup on your turntable. Then you’ve really got something. But seriously, audiophiles will argue over anything. Some will say that one kind of hardwood sounds better than another. And I have read pro and con arguments around the use of maple under components. In the end, if you’re happy, that’s good.

Of the major food groups Spam is the king of dampers on butcher blocks. Not too soft, not too hard. Just right. And the best part is if Spam doesn’t ring your bell sound wise you can make some sandwiches with it.
