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.

@bolong It might be "helpful and civil" of you to NOT prowl around through the threads and let me be.

I haven't addressed you or even posted on this thread in nearly TWO WEEKS. And, until now, have been left alone and for that WE is grateful.

I don't even know exactly what you are referring to other than I simply don't care what you/"we" think about me or my opinions so let's just let it go. Can you do that? You probably can't or won't but I hope you will. 

I don't know who you mean by "We" but, evidently, I have committed some kind of wrongdoing of disagreeing with the topic here and ruffled some feathers with you/"we" experienced regulars creating some inaccurate accusations of myself that keeps me the heck OFF here and out of "we's" way.

Pease be "civil" and leave me OUT of your little "We" club, of which I'm glad I'm not a part of, and leave me alone.👍🏼💯😶

Please.
