plinth for tts8000

in my quest to do a multiple tonearm for my tts Sony 

the original is mdf. and honestly sound a little dark and dead so.. my thoughts of cld type of strategy is 

top bamboo wood by ikea. 
middle rose wood
bottom 5mm of Alum since I need something to bolt on.

Any thoughts or suggestions welcomed

my experience with dd is also excellent. and I heard plenty of other types TT . 

best of both world is coreless DD. fluid and musical like belt as well. that's why I collected the tts-8000. good compromise both value and maintenance. anything better is pretty expensive. 

I love my kenwood. kp. 990,  not as fluid as Sony. but detailwise, saturation and coherence is one step above at this moment .now u get me thinking. kenwood have a x Alum structure below. it's both light and strong maybe stiffness helps with stabalizing the torque. mass loading dd might be beneficial

thank you for comments

I have the original plinth actually it's full mdf with piano finish. this will be backup.


workable choice :

Alum - spring suspension. it's workable I experienced. friend had did this on tonearm of thorens. 1 cm aluminum with linn's spring. the only decent mod approved.. the rest totalling about 6 thorens. 2 garrard. I don't find them good. linn sondek is great. empire is great. question is how to get the spring and how to get it right. 

Alum MDF Alum

bamboo ebony bamboo. frank schröder method 

penzoholtz. unfortunately no source for me. 

general mass load. just equal to dead and not necessarily quiet.
