I'm ordering a roll of raamat to do the doors, back wall, and floor of my truck if there is any left. Is ensolite necessary or will I still get good results if I only use the mat?

You'll get good results from mass loading the panels, but ensolite will help kill reflection and dampen overall surface noise.

I only ordered the roll of BXT, oh well. If I feel I need more I can order the ensolite later down the road. I accidently ordered the adhesive too and Rick sent me an email saying I don't need the spray for the mat, what a good guy! :D So hopefully he doesn't still charge me, hahaha. I think one roll should be enough for the doors which aren't very big, and the back of the cab.

I'm using 4 rolls in my expedition, and now I wish I hade ordered more, as I'm not done but getting lower than I expected. I also think ensolite is great I have only completed the cargo area and roof, but it's really nice an sold sounding now. Doors are noisey but I only BTXed the driverside and still haven't ensolited it.

I think you will be really happy though.

This is great to hear. But being a poor college student on a budget, I'm hoping one roll will be enough. I know this question is vehicle dependent but is skipping on deadening the floor going to be a huge deal? Or should I make the floor/doors my first priority, and whatever I have left go to the back of the cab? I think the back of the cab will take up less than one door would, so roughly 10-15 sq. ft.

bump, i'm getting ready to run some wires right now and I don't want to have to re-run them when the raam gets here. should I focus on deadening the door/back of cab the most or doors/floor the most?

Nevermind, I answered my own question. Might as well get the floor first since I'm going to have the seats and carpet out anyways for when I run the new wire. It'll be easier to get at the back wall later on than it would be to get at the floor.

If I had 1 roll to use. I would use as much as I could on the doors then put the rest elsewhere. Since the doors are where your midbass speaker are it would seem most important to me, but thats just my opinion
