RE: Isoblocks: Cork or EVA?

I have some similar items but have not found them effective in audio use ( I was trying to see if I could place them on the top panel of a pre-amp to damp it).

They are intended to be used under vibrating machinery ( such as the fridge of Uncle Mike below). I suspect that they are designed to cope with low frequency, relatively high energy vibrations rather than the low energy or micro vibrations in the audio band that are usually our concern in isolating equipment.

Still maybe it's worth experimenting if you are happy to write off the cost if unsuccessful.
