Ya know this would be a lot more interesting if you had a pic posted in your system page, or maybe a link to a pic somewhere.
Solid Epoxy Resin Platform -
I have made a platform using Solid Epoxy Resin table tops. Just think of the Black table tops in a science lab. The table tops look like a slab of Granite or Marble, but are super heavy. The ones I used are 5ft x 2ft. and 1 inch thick. And weigh close to 100 lb. apiece.
I put one 100 pound 5'x 2' x 1" table top down on my carpet. I then put 6 neoprene/cork anti- vibration pads on top of the Epoxy Resin table top. I put a 4"x4" anti vibration pad in each corner and two in the upper and lower middle of the the 5' x 2' table top.
I then just put the other 100 lb. table top on top of the one with the anti vibration pads on it.
A Solid Epoxy Resin sandwich.
This is my base platform that I will( have) put my audio racks on top of. You could go in a number of ways hear. I chose to put 4 3"x3" anti vibration pads on top of the solid epoxy resin table top. I then put a 20"x16" x 2 1/2 inch Maple cutting board on top of the 4 3"x3" pads. I then put my rack (20"x16") on top of the Maple cutting board. I repeated this with my other 20"x16" rack.
Unlike Granite, Marble or other rock based shelves, or platforms. The Solid Epoxy Resin platforms that I put together is Rock solid no ringing. Hooked my system back up and the lower noise floor just jumps out to you.
I listen to familiar songs and hear things that were always there in the recording but masked. Listening to a song from Jamey Johnson album "that lonesome song' I heard for the first time a background singer singing with him on a song from beginning to end ever so softly. I was able to hear this without straining for the first time.
Now it all depends whether that is worth it to you or not. But it made my listening that much more enjoyable.
Another example is Cassandra Wilson album " Silver Pony" the last track is a duet with singer John Legend. A nice ballad called "Watch the Sunrise". For the first time of me listening to this song that I have played endlessly. I notice that he is coming out of the left middle speaker and she is coming out of the right middle speaker as it pertains to the center of the room. Before they both appeared to be singing from the left and right middle. So now the space between them is much easier to see and hear in the sound stage. That was cool.
And from a looks perspective the deep Black Epoxy Resin platforms look very good, then add the Maple boards to it. You have a system the is vibration proof and lowers the noise floor, which allows you to hear more into the music. But looks smoking hot. I'll take it.
