HRS Isolation damping plates


I was wondering if I could have some thought and views on the HRS Damping plates. Please give feed back on what and how you liked them. I have not seen any used come up so I am thinking the people that buy them love them and keep them. I realize I may be opening up a large can of words but heck its friday.

listening to FM's Black Noise and drinking wine..... Cheers,

I have not tried damping plates, but I have a hunch that Glory is absolutely correct. I suspect that A bag full of led shot on top of a component may be as effective as any expensive solution. You can also try the effect of maple butcherblock on top of your equipment. . . e.g.:

A DIY solution is to drive to your local kitchen counter fabricator. . . choose a small piece of discarded granite or limestone from the dump in the back of the store, and pay a few dollars to have it cut and trimmed to desired size. Then by a thin sorbitane pad to place on top of your equipment before you load it with the granit.
Let us know your results.
Ghost, if the plates make a difference. . . try also some lowly material. . . Lead shot I already spoke about. . . but a 50Lbs bag of rice , pinto beans, or sand. . . may do the dampening trick as much on top of a component.
