Perhaps you could explain how out of 2 equally stiff items, one could provide superior damping properties than the other? (Leave out mass for a moment, keep the maths simple). They can't.
It's A question of yield strength, mass, and a bit of mathematics, damping being a simple function of the attenuation of vibrations as they travel through a material, with heat as a by product.
Try and understand the problem instead of selectively referring to the interweb.
Would a carbon fibre bell sound the same as a brass one?
