You could do a search on this forum under quartz, tourmaline or topaz and get some ideas. I've had good luck on top of components, power inlets, transformers, near tubes, near speakers--just about anywhere. Here are pictures of my preamp and phono pre with tourmaline and topaz inside:

I used silicone which remains flexible after it has set. According to unclestu52, providing some flexibility to the crystal mount is necessary to convert the electromagnetic energy into mechanical vibration. See the link below for his explanation. If you look for his posts on crystals, you can find a lot of information on the physics of crystals along with his speculations and experiences.
