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!
Whatever you make your stands from, put your components on Symposium Ultra platforms. The disc couplers transmit any vibration from your equipment or the room and converts it to a tiny amount of heat. I have these things under my components and the difference was remarkable - especially with my tube amp and preamp. Cleaned everything up. If cost isn't an issue, get the Symposium Osirus rack.
