You didn't mention the purpose in your original post.

For absorbing soud from a small device, the foam panels intended for computer use should be helpful but they will be more effective inside rather than outside. Inside, they absorb each time a reflection falls on them. Outside, sound escaping from the case is going to go through them once only on exit and then get reflected around the room. Yes, some reflections from the room will eventually strike the case again but the case is small in comparison to room area so that won't happen too often.

If you can't fit the foam or whatever you use inside the device's case, can you build a small cabinet to enclose the case and line the inside of the cabinet instead?
