First - the cause of the vibration needs to be understood.
Second - the means at which to dissipate the vibration also needs to be understood.
"A specified geometry has to work with a specified material."
If you are missing either side of this equation the cause and effect is essentially void.
Geometry works - all cones or materials are not created equal.
Brass alone has different types of metallurgy. Each variation will yield a different sonic result. At the very least brass used in the development of musical instruments provides us musical history.
