Anything that has a tone when tapped is bad to use for lifting cables. I had this happen to me when I experimented with glass prisms on wood blocks.My advice is to make cylinders out of stiff paper stock and stand them on end. Place plastic bags with kitty litter inside into the centers to help dampen them. Wrap the ends with Teflon thread-seal tape for further acoustic damping. Your cables transmit vibration directly into your equipment, so they should be supported by things as firm and quiet as your equipment supports. If you have heavy cables, use lots of paper lifters.
