In Reply to: overkill? black diamond racing shelf in sandbox? posted by rhyno on December 15, 2014 at 16:45:25:
I have done the same as you, building 6" deep MDF sand boxes (or cat boxes, as we kitty-lovers call them) and then employing various footers and maple boards, etc., to find the best sonic combo of support. It takes lots of trial and error.
But you'll never know how the combo sounds until you try it, unfortunately, and sometimes they fail badly. Just pick yourself up and start from scratch and keep working at it. It's the guys and gals who work the hardest that get the best sound (no comment on mega multi-millionaires, of course. They don't count.)
Best of luck.
You might want to try posting in the "Tweaks Asylum", just for your information. You'll get noticed there a lot more than here, I'm afraid.
