RE: Idler Drive Plinth Question

I don't disagree with what the other fellow said, but I would just add that the nature of the build materials matters greatly, as well. In other words, I can imagine a 50-lb plinth that would result in better sound than a 100-lb plinth, if the materials used to build the former were superior to those used to build the latter. In my limited experience, hard woods and slate trump MDF and the like. Granite and marble are not at the top of my list, either. But as you may know, some folks mix a layer or two of MDF in with layers baltic birch plywood, nothing exotic, and can get good results. Lenco Heaven is one place to start.
