Re: Find a nice tonewood platform.....

"Tonewoods" are those that have good resonant characteristics for musical instruments; i.e., they resonate freely and copiously; exactly what you don't want for a turntable platform. The ideal support for a suspended TT is one that releases resonant energy quickly without coloring the sound. A wood plinth stores resonant energy and feeds it "slowly" back into the TT, causing bloated bass, dull note attack, and poor pacing.
