Actually the stuff u guys are trying to make is nothing but the TNT sandblaster. Quite a good one, which i had made & am using since 4 years now. Though the original design suggests using the top plate as MDF, it may ( in some systems) dry-out the flesh in the music. Maple, is a much better choice. I do not suggest Aluminium,bcos its got its own RINGING character. Cork is way better than MDF in this design, which was my 1st change. Just a quarter-inch Cork sheet on the sand & ur equipment directly sits on it. It is highly suggested to remove the feet off ur component so as to DAMP the chassis of the component with the sand-effect that we are trying to achieve here. Also try a Half-Inch Acrylic sheet. Depens upon what u are lacking in ur system, which this isolation will induce.
If ur system is a little forward & bright, can certainly use MDF. But in a descent set-up, i think Maple is very NEUTRAL.
Do let me know ur experiences
