Default Sound Deadening and wadding etc.

Hi,

I'm installing some components this w/e and I have some dynamat questions. I'll have at least a wedge pack (or two) of extreme to hand.

1/ Speakers will be mounted on MDF baffles with the tweeters in front of the midbass, the lot bolting up to the doors. I will dynamat the door behind the baffles but is it also worth dynamatting the midbass/baffle and tweeter/baffle mountings?

2/ How much of the outside skin of the door is it worth covering?

3/ What is used to prevent standing waves behind the midbass? I was hoping to use eggcrate style sponge or similar. Anyone using Focal Plain Chant for this purpose?

Regards,

Jeremy.

i recall people saying that usually a suqare foot behind the speaker on the door skin should suffice. i have wrapped my baffles in extreme, no harm can be done

Dynamat have not long released a product for behind your speakers called dynaxorb. May be worth having a look at. More info on www.dynamat.com

i did my boot out with a pad kit from Noise Killer which was a very good kit and they did spray on sound deadening in like a wax oil bottle which ya put on an airline and spray it on the inside of ya doors etc.i think the boot kit was about £60 odd if i remember right.
