D,Sorry, the focus of my point-and-shoot doesn't take close-ups of dark grey objects like my amplifier.
Just use Neoprene to interrupt the frequency vibration conflicts between the twelve parts of the outer case - 4 horizontal meetings of bottom with sides, front/ back plates, 4 vertical meetings of sides with front & back plates and 4 horizontal meetings of top with sides, front & back plates.
Have concluded that 1/8" cork is in fact better for insulating IEC unit, volume pot and selector switches from the amplifier case. One trick is to wind Teflon tape on to the stem of the volume pot and selector units sufficient to insulate them as they go through the amplifier front plate. If it's then possible to squeeze a nylon washer on the volume pot's stem before attaching the lock-nut, that's desirable further insulation. As Uncle Stu has advised, wrapping these stems with Teflon tape before attaching their control knobs is desirable.
I found inserting thin cork on the inside and outside between the back plate and each speaker output reduced the vibration and increased sound image focus. The Interconnect inputs are the most sensitive of all and nothing more than molded rubber o-rings seems to work there in my experience. Don't forget to wrap the fuse holders and the center of the fuses with Teflon tape, lift the circuit board and insert 1/8" cork to isolate it from vibrations carried through the amplifier case. I could go on:-)

P.S. How tight are the screws? Reasonably.
