Any advice on this DIY latex setup?

I'm going for a pretty soft feel, based on how I liked the Pure Latex bliss nutrition (which is 2" x 19 ild, 2" x 28 ild, 6" x 36 ild) with the 14 ild topper on it.

Top to bottom:

2" - 14 ild - $314  - Sleep like a bear

2" - 19 ild - $314  - Sleep like a bear

2" - 28 ild - $204  - Myfoammattress.com

3" - 36 ild - $305  - Myfoammattress.com

cover: 10" terrycloth - $85 - Foambymail

foundation: EZ-sleep - $215 - bedinabox.com

Total: $1437

My concerns are:

1.  Will the 3" 36ild base be comparable to the 6" base in the Nutrition, or will it be too little support? My wife and I are about 150 lbs, side sleepers. I figure SleepEZ and Flobeds use 3" base cores, so it should work.

2.  Is myfoammattress.com a reputable place to buy from? Prices are good, its Latex International talalay, but not much other info on them.

Any comments appreciated - thanks!
