I've observed beneficial sonic results of energy dissipation caused by carbon loaded insulation layers of cables, carbon fiber cable sleeves, and a carbon fiber faceplate of an AC outlet wall mount unit, so I can vouch for the effectiveness of carbon dissipation devices. As for the Valab Carbon rca connector, I would need to compare its carbon fiber sheathed barrel with an exact barrel without the carbon fiber sheath in order to properly judge its actual level of effectiveness. I'll say again that in this case I do think highly of the Valab Carbon rca connector from both a mechanical and sonic POV.
