Ok, I've got a problem. I've just bought a rega p3-24 with power supply and speed changer for the amazing price of £300 - clearly this is not said problem.
The hi fi unit we have to house the gear is too narrow on the top for the tt to sit so I'm going to stick a platform of some kind on it. My first thought was granite but finding the right widt is proving tough; it needs to be 47-48cm wide to sit comfortably. So then I thought about wood due to being able to cut it to size.
What kinds of wood would be best for this? A really heavy, solid lump or a lighter type? I'm totally new to high end turntables and their respose to positioning and all that so any advice would be welcomed.
