I also wondered if wood would improve my stereo, so, I created Maples wood blocks and used them with different types of cones. I have a few extra, I could list them on Agon if interested.
@jab , so did it improve your stereo?
Amp Stands - Wood or Stone
I'm in the process of relocating my audio equipment to a side wall and need to place my amps, AGD Audions, on something. Floor is carpeted. Stands will be very small and won't be supporting much weight. I have access to granite, marble, etc. (next to nothing scape from remodel jobs). Also, have pretty good relationship with a serious wood worker who is happy to cut maple, oak, cherry, most any hardwood, etc. Cost is not really an issue just looking for an opinion / logic around which material I should use. At this point, I'm thinking 1 1/2 to 2 inch thick walnut on some kind of cone / spike legs. Sorry for maybe a dumb question!

A Board Material that can be used to a good effect and one that does not need to have any expense attached to acquiring it for being used as a trial is Chipboard. Chipboard is produced in different compressions for the particulate. A Sub Plinth produced from a not too compressed Board will be one to show a difference that is perceivable as an improvement. For myself it has been very effective as a Tier used under a Speaker, but this will also be useful under other devices. If an individual wants to pretty up the raw material, then this will add a cost. |

It might be helpful to prowl around through threads on this forum to get a feel for the general but unspoken agreement on civility or the lack thereof. There have been plenty of spats on this forum for which we are grateful because they indicate a healthy enthusiasm for the truth even if some truths may be beyond solution. |
