  1. Don,

    What is the difference between your product and the many others out there? I am fully aware of your excellent customer service. But talking strickly product here, what can someone benefit from your product vs any others out there on the market? What is inside your materials that make it a better choice? What testing on these products can ensure us the consumers, that we are making the best decision when choosing your products vs anybody else?

    This shouldn't be an SDS product specific thread. I'll be posting some test results for CLD Tiles on the SDS site in the next few weeks that should show that the adhesive used has been tested more thoroughly than any other product on the market. Going through the catalog, product by product, would be beyond the intended scope of this thread but I will try to get more data on the SDS site. I'm confident enough that every product I sell belongs in the top tier of this category that I happily send free sample kits to anyone who requests them (in the US). Nothing like hands on to evaluate quality.

    Free samples! Now thats what I'm talking about. :fing34:


  2. I dropped the ball. Not even sure how. It's happened a few times that an incoming message gets marked read before I reply or the system hangs while I have a message open. Sorry about that. I responded to the original message so Phil and I should be able to pick this up. It's usually safe to assume that if I don't respond in a day or two, something is up.

    I'm a little concerned about this: "these xcons are doing some work on my car." There are two things I can think of that this might mean. The first is that the subs are exciting panel resonance that needs to be controlled. Vibration damper may be a good solution for this. The second is that this is an SPL setup and the XCONs are tearing the vehicle apart. In that case, traditional sound deadening techniques are probably a poor fit. Using vibration damper to structurally reinforce sheet metal is much less effective than other approaches and is likely to have a negative impact on scores since the mechanism of vibration damping - converting vibration (which can become sound) into heat (which can't) is taking things in the wrong direction.

    In any case, I screwed up and it shouldn't have happened.

    Honesty is always the best policy. Thank you for being soooo honest Don. It makes us all feel better when an owner can just say "Hey, I fudged up. Sorry."

    :fing34: I agree with you on that.


  3. nice! you'll love the improvements it makes to your car overall... I am on my way to a 3? purchase I believe for CCF for my 2003 Toyota... Don't forget the pics...!

    Will do. Pics will be coming soon. I'll have my wife snap some pics, sometime in May when I get back I'll post a build log.


  4. Thanks Don @ Sounddeadenershowdown.com for his superb customer service and smooth transaction. Can't wait till May so I can install everything and post up pics of my build log so you guys can enjoy. Thanks everyone for the recommendation.


  5. I PMed Brian about 3 hours before you started your thread, put a smile on my face to see it :)

    So no tweeters to go with them, your current coaxial/components will cover that... you must just be adding more midbass?

    Well the D6 components have tweeters that sounds good, I have the components in the front, was also debating if I should switch out my tweeters but they sound fine. but yes the d6 lack midbass so thats why I'm adding the 7" to my current setup to see if I want to do a complete front stage upgrade. We shall see soon.


  6. do they still sell poly? I had four of the 1st run but they had a tinsel slap issue on the 1st batch, I took the hit on restocking fee. Now I need 10 polymids for my HT if theyre still dirt cheap like they were when they came out.

    Will you be running them with the Diamond Audio D3 500.4?

    I dont think they sell the poly anymore, I can find out for you though. I will probably get the Diamond Audio D6 700.4 or 2. I'm going to use the d3 for the midrange speakers which are the d6 5x7 speakers. I'm still debating if I should get some 5.25 speakers or just keep the ones I have now, maybe even a 6.5, not sure yet.


  7. LOL!

    You want a SQ install and you will have 4 15's Havoc's and 2 Mmats 3500.1's?

    Back to the drawing board buddy.

    What is it you really want?

    What do you not like about what you have now?

    I see more midbass, but what else?

    well yeah the midbass is lacking, and I guess I want to go in a new direction and change the placement of my speakers and not have it in the stock location.
