DIY Shelves


Just wondering if anyone tried Corian for shelves instead of wood or granite,or glass, etc, no idea how it would sound but comes in a variety of colors, and not to pricey

Have you read redkiwi's old A'gon threads on shelves? There are three major threads that are very illuminating and had loads of participation. He does mention Corian. Happy hunting!
As an adjunct to what Bright Star Audio offered be cautious about the ideas of heavy dampening as opposed to lightweight rigid isolation. I am truly no expert, yet there are many threads here to suggest that some gear seems to like decoupling and some likes coupling. I have found through experimentation at home my power amps seem to like heavy dampening, my source a suspension TT and a CD deck seem to favor lightweight rigid isolation with cones, the pre and phono amp work well with lightweight rigid isolation and decoupling footers, and my speakers truly sound right with coupling spikes into the hard wood floor. Ouch! The one truth in all of this is that there seems to be no hard and fast rules... experiment! All IMHO. Cheers!
