Are you saying that components don't benefit from damping? That vibrations don't affect components, either tube or solid state? Or that THIS product is snakeoil?
 
Heh, it's not a product, it's pet hair or worse.

It was supposed to result in a " :ROFL: "
 
Where did those pictures come from?

Scary look'n.:eek:
 
DANG! was the animal sleeping on the unit. That has to be the worse I have ever seen and I was an audio bench tech for several years.

On a serious note: no need for expensive dampening solutions for gear. Pick up some 3M 2552 damping foil . You can get it in 2" x 36" for less than $15. Just peel and stick on the inside of cabinets and chassis. A little goes a long way, so you don't need a lot.
