Okay adding a topper to my SleepEZ, what to buy

I bought a SleepEZ 10,000 in April 2010 (Dun Firm, Tal Med, Tal Soft).  By December, I was having lots of lower back pain and sore shoulders.  I played around with the configuration.  The mattress ended up on the floor and I turned over the medium talalay layer (tag facing down now) and rotated it 180 degrees.  My back pain has gotten better.  I have a feeling there is a very slight imperfection in that layer near the seam and about 1/3 of the way down the mattress.  Its just me using the mattress.  I don't have any idea how I would locate and proove a 1/4 inch depression in a 3" layer of foam.  Maybe I can train a team of ants to walk the mattress and measure the grade; but I think I'll just live with it instead. 

 

Anywho.  My back pain is better, but my shoulders are still a little bit sore on the top, and everything I've read seems to indicate that the mattress is a bit too firm for the top half of my body.  Will it work to add a single topper of all ILD 20 topper?  Or will I make it too soft at the hip and go back to having back pain?  I can get a zone topper from FBM, but its pricier.  I have no problem spending extra for a good night sleep, but I hate to do that needlessly.
