Hi, I have a 2002 Nissan Maxima, I see lots of people taking about the Sound Deadening the front doors, which mine have 6.5 speakers, and telling me that will help my install, etc... I would like to see some experienced opinions on this and if possible what type, what amount and which brand do you recommend?(the less expensive the better) Thank you.

Okay here directly i am going to be ordering some cdl tiles and perhaps a roll of MLV but my question is, if i put the mvl on to block engine noise would peeling the firewall off the center console insert and puting it behind there and then under my carpet on my floor work to block the engine noise. and in my van would it be easier/cheaper to use dynamat on the back walls and just cdl the doors just need a little extra tips on what i can do. thanks fellas

This is a dumb question I'm sure. I've searched here and on the web and still haven't found an answer. Even looked at the Mazda install pics. I'm happy to have a big box here in front of me from a Mr Don. I've seen pics of the cod tiles installed on the outer door skin and other pics of it on the inner. By inner I am refering to where the door panel mounts. Which is correct? My goal is to block road noise and help improve the sound quality of my mids. I do have MLV to mount on as well. And I didi figure out where that goes lol. Thanks!

The side windows in a bronco's top are only held in by rubber trim, Unfortunately they are not tight enough to withstand the pressures of bass. The windows flex back and forth and on some songs can make enough noise to be annoying. Anyone have any ideas on how to better secure them? I was thinking maybe epoxy of some sort, but I'm not sure if it would work or which one to use.

I was just wondering if it is ok to use that rubberized undercoating stuff that comes in a can for the inside of speaker boxes? If it is possible to use would I benefit from it? I'm not looking to but if I do thats fine, I really just want to seal up any "potential" leaks and make sure it won't hurt.

Okay so im gonna be running four Sundown Audio SA-8's on a SAZ2000d. Im working on building a fiberglass box for them in my Silverado and I have heard some stuff about deadening the interior of the enclosure to gain spl and sq as well. Is this true? If so what kinds of deadener would you recomend? im guessing spray but any suggestions are helpful thanks.

I have a 2007 ram quad cab. I bought a set of hertz energy esk 165.5 comps. I was just thinking about deadening my doors. I emailed don as sds I really don't want to go to that much hassle. I know that you can't seal the door and such. I just was wondering if second skin is any good to put a little deadener on the door. I have not ever deadened a door did a few trunk lids in my day but have never had this nice of front component set.

Alright, obviously this isnt very possible but i want to cut out as much rattle as possible. I already have a single layer of Dynamat and its not working. My rear bumper is rattling like crazy, trunk is rattling, rear-quarter panel basically everything from the C-Panel back. Iv been looking into SDS, a good cost effective choice. Im guessing my best bet is MLV tile but im not really sure if ill need anything else? Also, iv heard to eliminate quarter panel rattle is to use a shaped piece of MDF and spray foam. Tell me what you think. Total noob when it comes to deadening. Help me out.

Ive searched and searched for any info about how to decrease the noise created by my Thule 686XT Atlantis 1600 Roof Box to no avail. Is that because its simply a silly thing to try since it just makes so much noise? I have done no sound damping to my Subaru Impreza, but plan to address noise coming through the floor, hood, doors and roof. my question is this: Is there something I can do to the box to get it to resonate less? Or do i simply focus on the roof and possibly, load bars and rails? Thank you very much for any help you may offer. Noah

Hello, I have a 2007 Mazda 3 with stock everything. Have yet to make a change but I'm planning on it in the future. My main problem is when i turn up the volume, my door panels rattle around a lot. This is one thing I hate about the car. The doors feel really light and cheap. Anyways, this is a stock system, no subwoofer, bass on h/u is on 0 but when i turn up the volume the speakers cause my door panels to rattle. What type of application would help stop all of this rattling? Do I just need to roll on some deadener on the door? Do I need to remount my speakers outside of the door panel? Just need a little advice to make this rattling stop. Thanks.

Im looking for some advice on killing the rattle from my sliding sunroof cover. When it's slid open, it's ridiculously loud, but when it's closed, it's not bad at all. I'm planning on dropping the headliner to put some damplifier up there soon. Just don't want to go in blind and waste product.

All, I have posted about every aspect of my install except for this one. I have a 2008 Cobalt LS Coupe and have very recently, 1 Hour ago, bought a new set of speakers for the doors. I have never deadened a door before an am looking for information as to where the best locations for each type of deadener would be and if your regular "sound mat" would be good enough. The picture below shows what my door looks like with the interior panel taken off. Any help would be much appreciated!

I have a 08 Impala and when I had my Icon 12 on a 1200D, the bumper rattled like crazy. I had two layers of Raamat on the trunk outer skin. It seems like there is a piece of plastic or something smacking the frame behind the bumper and causing most of the rattle. Just wondering if anyone has fixed this issue. I have an Xcon 15 coming and it will be on 2000w~ and I know it will be a little worse. Any help is appreciated.

I have an opportunity to get a bunch of hushmat extremely cheap from a shop wanting to clear it out. Now, my question,is it any good? Normally, it is too expensive to consider over the other brands on here, but this is a good deal. I don't want to spend the money or time if the stuff does a poor job. I only want to deaden once.

can MLV be stacked to provide better results? for instance if one has 1/8" 1lbs per sq/ft can you put two layers on to get double or close to double the effectiveness? if so how should the sheets be orientated? front to front, back to back, or in the same direction? you couldn't glue it together right, because that would lessen its effectiveness? when installing into doors it should be affixed around the edge but left relatively free floating other than that, right? my understanding is if its rigidly stuck down that it will lessen its ability to absorb sound.
