I have experimented with maple platforms under my speakers, and my results were, that maple pretty much "kills" the sound, it becomes lifeless with constricted dynamics. I switched to Sistrum, and like Glory said- it beats maple by a very long shot.

They looked n nice...that is it....Resonant assistance is way over stated for amps or preamps. Turntables is a different story. Jallen
