It actually wouldn't have occurred to me to try damping tubes simply with mass when there are effective dampers such as those from Herbie's which take a totally different approach.
Perhaps it was simply a follow on from my abandoning mass with loudspeakers the best part of 15 years ago that has somehow stopped me seeing mass as a solution.
In any case I have seen the Black Discus and now the Tube Toppers as working in a manner closer to crystals than sticking a big lump of something on to things.
The BDs are pretty lightweight to effect speaker cables and plugs through mass but those effects are certainly there and I would agree with others here who consistently hear a darkening or treble roll off in certain places.
But in other areas the effect can be very positive. Experimenting is the key which is why the freebies from MSA were so valuable.
