Problem with maple under headphone amp


I put a piece of random maple (probably hard maple) under an amp and the bass was vastly attinuated as compared to poplar. The mid, ie vocals were awsome. What wood has great deep bass with the wonderful round non peaky , natural sound of at least the maple I used?? Thanks, Tweaker

Amps are not musical instruments. I'd cautious abut drawing conclusions about what an amp sounds like on a particular wood from how an instrument made of same wood sounds.

Also I would hesitate to draw any general conclusions that amp sitting on any particular material will sound better or even different than before. WHat came before it is probably a factor. There may be others as well. Be careful about jumping to conclusions!
