Trelja, I remember that thread. I think they were talking about laminated pine. Nrchy had posted to the thread. Maybe he will chime in. The ideas and opinions were pretty positive about it. Nate?
Granite vs Wood DIY Audio Racks?
I recently upgraded my CDP which requires a bit more room than my current rack has to offer. While there are quite a few new racks I like, I find them to be a bit pricey so I figured I'd give DIY a shot.
The materials I'd like to use are either John Boos maple cutting boards (stained black) or granite slabs (black) which I can aquire at a local marble shop. While I prefer the granite looks wise, I rather choose the material which would sound better. Supports would be 1" threaded rod. Does anyone know where I can get 1" female threaded cones for the rods?
My listening room is on the 2nd floor and has an oak wood floor.
I appreciate any thoughts or recommendations.
Regards,
Steve
