I also never realized that there is such great interest in our group about wood for possible audiophile application.
Actually I am doing a "trial and error" method of finding the "right" type of wood for the Analog front end. It is shaping up to be an unending search. Who knows, the differences in sound between wood types may not be that great. Who knows, maybe the major differences lies in the basic nature of the materials as in, vegetable/animal/mineral? It is driving me nuts, right now I am making a Denon casing out of animal product...Carabao horn! I like the way it feels; tough, non-resonant, made of fused fibers.
So, I will have done vegetable (wood) and animal (carabao horn). Now if only someone will supply me with Jade, Ruby or Emerald....
Seriously, if someone can get me exotic wood in thin strips (about 1mm), that will allow me to make tonearms much easier.
