I'm looking into trying some of these. Are there weights specifically made to be placed on top of audio equipments, other than Mapleshade and Finite Elemente?
I use solid carbon blocks, which I discovered at my dealer. There not only for vibration but they absorb heat. Placing on and off on my cd transport and dac and amps (over the transformer) blew me away. Only downside is there slightly pricey- around $80 for a half block and $160 for a cube.

Look for brass weights on Ebay. Also, scuba diving weights are handy an relatively inexpensive. Baggies of sand or lead shot work.
I would avoid iron as I believe iron is magnetic, and you want to avoid placing magnetic weights in the area of electronics. This is why brass is ideal.
