I think the answer is going to be---"For $30 try one." Add spikes and you have an amplifier stand.

Is compressed bamboo good to help reduce vibs
Devore's new monitor enclosures (3XL) are made from Bamboo which he selected because of reduced resonances and because bamboo is very environmentally friendly since it is easy to regrow. There must be something to it. I second the question: which store sells them? Sounds like a good deal. Let us know how they work if you try them. Thx |
if you look at my system page you'll find a pic of amp stands I made from similar bamboo butcher blocks. I bought the blocks from TJ Max for $20 each and are about 16"x19"x2". They are glued/screwed to an MDF plinth to which the supporting legs are bolted. I bought the "legs" off ebay and while I'm certain they were never intended as legs for anything, I don't know what they were for originally, though my guess is they were rollers for some heavy industrial conveyor system. Frankly I can't tell you if they reduce vibration because I didn't believe it was an issue in the first place. The Bamboo was as hard and heavy as a similar Rock Maple butcher block I was considering at the time though. My amps sit on a concrete slab floor, and previous stands were a slab of particle board with home made legs. The new ones are more attractive for sure and I know they didn't make anything worse. |
