General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

The only application for them--

either the "Mapleshade" product or the larger-sized, much-lower-priced cork-and-rubber blocks sourced directly from the San Marcos, CA manufacturer--that I found truly effective was placement under a since-replaced Comcast Motorola cable box, where they damped out a DVR-originated vibration that could be heard prior to block treatment as an annoyingly audible hum in both the listening room and one floor below the location of the A/V cabinet which housed the cable box.

In my case, placement under audio components (line stage, amp, universal digital player, and the 4" thick non-Mapleshade maple block supporting my turntable) tended invariably to "mush out" sonic output.
