RE: IC Damping

I made my DIY HALO's from some screw-in teacup holders and silicone round discs I found at Target. I used some side-cutters to cut the half-round teacup rings to a sharp point, then just pushed the circular discs through in the middle. The silicone discs come in various sizes, so you can custom them to your needs. You can trim the portion that fits against the RCA connection to make a perfect fit. The silicone discs are not too squishy and definitely made a small, but clearly audible improvement in my system. In places where too many cables did not allow for the DIY HALO's, I cut some square silicone pads I found in the same section, in a diagonal, forming two wedges and simply fit them between the closely placed connectors with the same effect. Every little bit helps, especially when it's cheap.
