I believe Bill Park (columnist for ProRec.com) was talking about having a concrete floor with earth over top (tamped down, of course) and then hardwood on top of that. Of course I'd hate to see the critters in there, but I do like the sand idea, which is what I was going to say. The only problem is that sand tends to become fluid with vibration, so it would be hard containing it if you were putting a floating floor down that didn't touch the side walls. -- Roger W.
