@onhwy61 The thicker board is a bit wider than the sandbox, so I need to lift it a bit. It`s a really nice maple board, and I am satisfied with the sandbox, trying to keep the foundations.
@bdp24 ASC`s solution looks good, I am going to contact them
@jab the surface is steady, it`s in a basement with concrete floor. The sandbox supposed to be a "sink" for the resonance coming from the TT. My integrated amp has it own sandbox also, but the board fits there.I found sand is -so far- the best solution for the base what fits my budget too.
@millercarbon The mineral oil is going to do the job, good idea. What quantity you used for your box? I am considering between four footers, ASC or springs. I think it`s the best not to leave gap between the two boards or am I wrong? I am keeping the board since it`s a really nice Shun Mook maple board, I really like it. I have tried granite, I think it was "ringing", but I guess I`ve messed up something. My phono stands on 5" MDF (6 layers glued and veneered) and thinking about to DIY it`s final sandbox soon. The bottom and the walls of the boxes are 2" MDF, but If I thought It would be good to upgrade later to real wood. Maybe I should drop the idea :) What footers would you use?
@geoffkait Would you set your springs in between two layers of maple?
Thank you!
