Re: I have never built a viola…

I appreciate your discourse on this issue. I do have a question, prompted by the discussion of materials and their properties. Where can I find a description of the properties of different materials used in audio to couple, uncouple, or absorb/translate vibrational energy? Are there materials better at deflecting or absorbing energy relative to a certain band of frequencies vs another material? If certain materials convert mechanical energy into thermal energy, wouldn't that be preferable? Thanks in advance for your replies.
