Dynamat?

[The Bear]

I've been thinking of sound deadening my boot floor to cut out the low bass drone of my exhaust (for music listening purposes) and have noticed a few competitors to Dynamat on eBay.

Are these products, such as eDead/Fatmat/RBLOX/Brown Bread, as good as Dynamat or are they all much of a muchness? Some of them are cheaper than Dynamat.

Oh and anyone else done the same job, and how much do you reckon I would need for the boot floor? eDead recommends a 30sq ft roll.

Can you double layer this stuff for extra effect or does it not work like that?

i don't think it has any effect at all at quitening down the exhaust as i found out

it's to decrease the panels resonant frequency rather that sound proofing

 

[The Bear]

Really? Sound proofing is specifically what most of them advertise.

So you did yours and didn't notice any sound difference then?

 

[Dink]

yeah did the whole boot floor and lid in dynamat xtreme

didn't seem to make one bit of difference to exhaust drone

Ok thanks. Something to think about.
