Engineered wood floors are more stable and you can go as wide as you like. As for laying you can glue down ditectly onto the subfloor if it is sound using Sika, Elka or taylors, these are maluble wood adhesives. There should be no reason to place an additional layer of ply as you are building up layers. We ahve a wealth of knowledge on all this wood on our website that you can view or call. By the way Engineered boards are generally a little more expensive due to the nature of the make up in production but look great and you dont have the same issues with cupping etc. Reading the article you placed on the website I can suggest that you could use Solid Wood Floors or Engineered wood floors, if you have underfloor heating I would recommend Enginnered wood floors only.
