hi all, i have some decent components to go in the front of my classic! thought while im at it i might aswell sound proof the doors! my question is do i put it on the actual outer door skin or the panel bit where the speakers actually mount?

 

Normal advice is to put a reasonable amount on the outer skin directly behind the speaker, and then to put "an amount" on the outer skin in the middle of the panel. Though it's not necessary to do the entire outer door skin, if you've taken most of the door mech off to gain access, doing the lot is one way of ensuring you don't need to tear it down again in future.

Inner door skin is full of voids. Advice to me was to bridge the voids to reduce backwash and improve tightness. If I had to do it again, I'd use plasticard or waterproof ply or similar as a stiffener bridging any large voids.

Plenty of examples on talkaudio forums.

ideal,thats basically what i was planing on doing! might have to buy some more deadening though!!

 

I done the inner and outer skin

 

inner and outer

 

what matting was that you used?

 

looks good mate, how easy it it to cut and fit?

 

thats how it should be done the only thing is no one in the uk uses reverb pads they are awsome made by casscade audio makes the sound waves go where they are meant to.

I used Dynamat Xtreme. Fitted it about 12" square behind the speaker and did the whole of the inner skin.

Weighs a bit but does make big difference in sound....
