I put 2" of fairly soft talalay on  top of our hard innerspring bed, and after a week of sleeping on it my wife says its too hard, and I find myself having backaches the next day even though I am very comfortable all night in the bed.

I went looking for an eggcrate just to see how softening it a bit would work, but can find only really crappy thin PU eggcrates, or fairly expensive memory foam ones.

Any suggestions on the best way to soften it a bit? I'd be tempted to try another inch of really soft latex,  don't really want to buy more expensive latex after my results with the first piece. But I also don't see the point in covering the expensive latex we have now with a cheaper foam, and loosing the premium latex "feel".  I can also recall hearing some theories here about using a thin layer of memory foam over latex but don't recall the details.
