Does anyone use wood for vibration control?


What kind of wood have you found to be best?

My last concept for a isolation stand was a combination of viscoelastic material, bamboo and glass micro beads. Together these materials simulate the operational characteristics of the woodpecker’s head (bone, special absorptive tissue and flexible cartilage) which able to withstand tremendous negative g’s whilst pecking wood. Much greater negative g’s than a F-22 fighter pilot pulling a Immelmann maneuver.
A quick shout out for Mpingo wood. The audiophile’s secret weapon. 

I guess I'm not like some of you. I would have no desire to be on an audio forum if I didn't even have an in-room stereo to talk about and use daily to explore with.

"And what’s with this obsession with soundstaging?! Recordings made in studios (the majority in most peoples music libraries) contain phony, artificial, fabricated, illusionary imaging."

I'm obviously in a different hobby than this guy lol.

I realize MF is a big vinyl guy but geez, Louise, you can only get so much soundstage when you’ve got 10,000 records crammed into the listening room. No offense to anyone. I mean, come on! MF would be wise to place his entire record collection in a dedicated house or self storage unit somewhere and keep only what’s in current rotation in his listening room. That would put him miles ahead of whatever he’s got now sound-wise. Same goes for CDs, all you CD fanatics out there. They are bad for the sound - there’s no other way to say it. Am I even allowed to say that? Will I be banned for saying that? 😳

I have lived here before, the days of ice
And of course this is why I'm so concerned
And I come back to find the stars misplaced
And the smell of a world that has burned
