You said, "On the other hand, a softer material may be dampening the original cable better mechanically and of course this actually can affect the two remaining parameters (strands vbrating in respect to one another). Of course there may be other factors also in play."Well said. I perceive tho art an intelligent man as that is pretty much what I was thinking when last weekend I generated my own lifters. Took about 2.5 days to settle in.
These are made from acoustic foam squares I had in storage. Even though I consider isolation methodologies evil and damping in many circumstances the poor man's attempt to isolate, damping does its place, namely I know you're going to vibrate but I don't want you doing here, hence the damping of my DIY lifters is intended primarily to minimize the cables minute vibrations as well as help keep the cables from vibrating in sympathy with the vibrations already generated/captured within.
Anyway, I've attached a pic with my Audio Teknes buried within. The girth of the Teknes is smaller than a pencil. Used box cutters and straight edge to make the half inch slits in the foam.
