  1. You've been AWOL! I've tried to contact you a few times. Hope all is well.

    I know there is no other audio forum out that I know of that does as much tweaking, upgrades, and constant work to improve the site.

    DIYMA is always adding something. That real-time viewer they have is awesome. But then again, they use Vbulletin ;)


  2. Here is what the manual says:

    Minimum Vented Enclosure

    2.25 ft3 (63.7L) + port displacement, Fb=44Hz

    Port: 42 in2 (271cm2) area x 19.75” (50.2cm) long

    1400W Peak Power

    Maximum Vented Enclosure

    6 ft3 (170L) + port displacement, Fb=68Hz

    Port: 250 in2 (1613cm2) area x 9” (22.9cm) long


  3. But aren't you talking up LLP? It's closed cell.

    The transmission loss of LLP, for example, at 250 hz (pretty much dead center of the "road noise' band) is 18 dB.

    Please stop putting closed cell foam in cars thinking it will do anything to the noise you don't want in your car. It's just not worth the headache and frustration.

    We saw a large drop around 250-300hz on the termlab after installing LLP.


  4. so overkill and luxury liner both accomplish the same goal, albeit overkill only filters out some frequencies whereas luxury liner blocks out alot more?

    That exactly what the website says...

    "Overkill is a noise absorbing filter that weeds out specific frequencies that are able to penetrate the first vibration damping layer. Luxury Liner is a barrier that blocks and reflects the most difficult airborne sound waves."


  5. Are you a rep for the company?

    No. That was a lot of wasted/unnecessary typing assuming that I am.

    I hope the admins here see this thread

    I basically am an admin here.

    Dear Original Poster,

    If this is how they treat you....

    Keep in mind this is a public forum. Just because someone posts here doesn't mean they automatically represent the company.

    as far as i'm concerned, 'kickin audio', you're quite rude

    I think you've confused rudeness with logic. I've used no slander, obscene or offensive language, or any form of ad hominem argument (as you're resorting to).


  6. how can they be apples and oranges ? they're both sold for the exact same purpose

    Vehicles are sold for the same purpose (travel), but is it fair to compare a Ferrari to a scooter?

    the website doesn't doesn't describe the differences between using an open celled or closed cell foam.

    It.....describes what the point of foam is

    not what the difference in type of foam is.

    Isn't the description of the point of foam used define the why the foam was chosen?

    open celled foam will absorb moisture. is that what you pay 40% more for?

    No, paying 40% more is not for the sake of absorbing more or less moisture. The purpose of Second Skin Audio is not to sell material for moisture absorption or prevention, but to strive in providing products engineered in reducing noise and vibration.


  7. Think of overkill has a filter, and luxury liner as a barrier (because of the foam and vinyl).

    I'll be making more videos on each product so you can see it in action. Check out this one though, it explains why we used which product.


  8. Anyone happen to notice what some bars are doing with Guinness? For joints that don't have it on tap, they've replaced the widget cans with a plain old can called the Surger. The crack the can, pour it and then put it on an electrical plate (the Surger) that creates the classic cascading head effect. Weeeee fun!

    Check out what happens when we put a Killians on the surger.
