Granite Slabs

@noromance That's a great idea actually! TY

@ghdprentice   Thanks.  The Townshend podiums look great, but a bit spendy for me ($4000).  I am hoping I can get 75% of the way there for 25% of the price with the IsoAcoustic GAIA feet.  They are returnable but a good bit of work to put them on.  

Great information here - thanks to those with experience for weighing in!!

anyone have thoughts on speakers on 2nd floor on hardwood floors?  I have Vandy 5s and they are just on small spikes.  Any views on which route I should take platform or ISO wise?

happy thanksgiving to all

Ebay or FB Market Place will help source Granite using a local search. 

Monumental Masons use thicker slabs than Kitchen C'tops, the M' Mason will have off cuts that can be tidied up.

 I have wrote on this forum teirs under a Speaker bring the most attractive results.

Three Tiers of Separators and Two Platform Tiers is a excellent starting place and able to be achieved in the low hundreds if purchases are prudent.

Granite at 50mm - 75mn thickness is fine as one of the platform tiers. Granite near 20mm thickness does not deliver as the thicker slab does.

regardjng your comment on Amazon selling “machine plates”, I’m a bit new to this area, can you provide a bit more color on what I should search for on Amazon?  When this rookie enters on Amazon search, it just shows workout platforms.

greatly appreciate the help
