I've applied some strips of damping to my Music Hall CD-25, but wondering where else would be good to put some. see pic

Anywhere you see bare metal, on the transport parts that don't move and on top of the transformer. I prefer Dynamat Extreme.

Be careful not to over do it, to much dampening can have an adverse affect on the sound.

The adverse effect is that the music loses it's dynamics and lifelike sound ( duller or darker ).
