Use Polycrystal and be done with it.

Any materiel used has a sonic signature. Like all things it is what you like. The old Zoethecus racks with the z slab just killed dynamics when I used the rack and amp stand. I sold them after several months trying to like them due to the cost but to much drive was missing.

The Polycrystal rack work perfect no harm no foul in any area of reproduction. I tried a few new amps stands to see if I could better it and none touch the Polycrystal.

Might try Delrin (expensive) it damps in the audio band or Slate, a bit heavy, needs a strong support base. - cfb 12:49:51 07/04/10 (0)
