A Fast, Inexpensive, Easy Way to Reduce Vibration: Audio Additives Adhesive Backed Sorbothane Damping Sheets Lessen Distortion

Reduce vibrations in and around your components by using Audio Additives Sorbothane damping sheets, which work with almost any gear or application. Each sheet measures 6 inches by 6 inches, and is 0.125 inches thick and is backed by self stick 3M adhesive. Place them anywhere you have vibration and let your components deliver better performance. The sheets can be cut to fit. There is no quicker, easier, or more inexpensive way to lessen internal and external vibrations, and help cancel out its negative effects on the music you hear.

More About Sorbothane and Damping
Sorbothane is a viscoelastic vibration-damping material that combines shock absorption, good memory, vibration isolation, and vibration-damping characteristics in one solution. Damping materials work by changing the natural vibration frequency of the vibrating surface, thereby lowering radiated noise and increasing the transmission loss of the material. Many applications and products are subject to vibration from internal as well as external sources. The effect of this vibration can range in severity, whether it is a computer owner's perception of the quality of their noisy hard drive to the actual failure of a mechanical system due to a high-cycle fatigue.

Examples of Applications That Need Damping
Electronics, laptop computers, car navigation systems, mobile phones, and many other types of advanced electronic equipment are subject to vibration from internal and external sources. Vibration damping is a crucial requirement when designing electronic systems because vibration is a common source of damage to electronic components and connections. Sources for concern are soldering connections becoming weakened, loss of data, damage to disk drives, inefficient operation, and poor overall performance.
