After having a decent a front stage, it annoys me to raise the bass level to where it starts to drown out the midbass, it just doesn't sound right.

Now if I could place some 10" midbass drivers like Jared, maintain some decent imaging, and in turn raise the bass level up a bit more, I'd be a happy camper--happy deaf camper at that point. :P

Welcome to the club :D

WHat?! Say that again. :P

My comment was directed at the first part of your post :P

It's so much nicer to have everything blend together instead of bass drowning out everything. I used to get sick of bass in a couple hours when I went with the Volvo at comps...

I enjoy discussing sound deadener with ppl. The science behind it is fun. That being said most ppl don't have a clue.

I cannot say enough at how much a difference it was when we thinsulated my roof. Was huge for this super cold, curious as to how it will do with the very hot days. I can make it almost all the way to work and there will be frost still on the top because most of the heat from the cabin did not make it up. :)

Did insulating the roof help with road noise or just help trap the sound in the car?

I believe my next step is going to be filling the a-pillar base with expanding foam. I think there is alot of road noise traveling up from the front fender through the open camber inside that area of the car body.

Even though there is no mass, thinsulate works like MLV as an absorber. The long fibers are a bit "magic".

So would the old standby CLD + CCF + MLV be improved by substituting the Thinsulate for the MLV? or by substituting the Thinsulate for the CCF? or by adding Thinsulate to the party?

Thinsulate needs to be used in the "other" direction. It REALLY excels when the waves have to travel along it instead of right through it.

Ah, I see. I think I'll keep the Thinsulate in my gloves and jackets for now, at least until I get back on my feet financially

What do you have against walls? I don't really care about back seats or selling the car(reversing it to it's original state for sale). :)

Same thing I have against huge boxes only one step further.

That is?

All non-pertinent to YOUR install :)

Yeah I was just messing with ya.

It is indeed.

And about selling hyped up bogus stuff, I wouldn't be proud of it, "if it looks too good to be true, it probably is", and some people have to learn the hard way. Not to mention, I'd be selling products that still actually work, people just think they work better then others. :lol:

If I was smd, I'd sell leds (brighter then normal leds), wire (handles more current), cap (works for lots of current demand), and a comp set (they simply sound better then everything else, no ifs ands or buts), I be rich!

You could fart in an empty box and sell it as Eau de Steve and people on there would buy it.

I should buy a poster of him (if any, or make my own), scribble on them with a black sharpie, post on ebay, make a thread on forum pointing to said ebay ad, collect earnings, and start all over next month. :roflmao:

What's a mind ?

The only thing that helps you fit in with normal people.

Some say I just don't fit in with normal people.

Lose yourself in it.

Is it weird that I find sanding flares relaxing ?

Nope, stuff like I sort of enjoy, like the hard work is finished.

Now if you had just started the sanding for a door panel or some shit, you can call me in to do the light sanding. :P
