Wow... thats a case of OCD
Whatever happened just good ole "listening" to the music
In regards to mass dampening, decoupling etc..
I can understanding the factors required to perform these isolation techniques to the source... but to the cables, especially on a headphone system?
I call ******** & placebo
I know for fact that companies such as Nordost, VD and a few others, such as Cardas insinuate that decoupling from the floor reduces overall resonance, and apparently "floor noise"
However now... this may be the case if you have incredibly well trained ears and are listening to "Speakers" at an over-reference level (92 db+) of which certain frequency humps in a room or materials in your system are causing unwanted resonance...
however you'd sooner run into issues with your room's acoustics, or the resonance from the TV on the wall well before you need to worry about decoupling cables...
In fact... if you talk to some "super" tweakers
They claim that the color of the cable makes differences to the sound's transparency and timbre
