Bass Increase = B-pillar noise?
i recently added a single 12'' enclosed subwoofer in my car, i dont listen to THAT much bass but i do like to know it's there, after this added bass lots of vibrations can be heard from the B-pillar area and the dash, anyone know of ways to fix this? would adding dynamat to the doors or trunk lessen it? thanks

sound deadening is an art all to itself. dynamat is good but don't expect it to help much with the dash. you need to hunt down each vibration and deal with it on an individual basis. yes, our cars do have much plastic so it will be a real challenge. check everything for tightness in the dash area and look for gaps witch can be "stuffed" with insulating material. it's good that you don;t have noise from the hatchback area, which is often a trouble area.

what the hell is this crap?
A salesman tried to sell his product to a farmer. He said he wasn"t interested because he hadn"t seen any bugs or insects on his farm for years. The salesman indicated he had a wife and four kids and really needed the money. The farmer still didn"t think he needed any insect repellent but he felt sorry for the salesman and said,I"m so sure there aren"t any insects around here, if you"ll strip naked, I"ll tie you to my barnyard fence for the entire night. When morning comes, if you"ve got even one insect bite on you, I"ll buy every can of repellent you"ve got. The salesman was elated and readily agreed to being tied up naked. That night, the farmer tied the naked salesman to the barnyard fence and went to bed. Several times during the night he thought he heard the salesman moaning and groaning. However, when he went out the next morning, the salesman didn"t have even one bite or scratch on him. The farmer asked,What was all that moaning and groaning about last night?That was the worst night of my life, the salesman replied,doesn"t that damn calf have a mother? By the way, the salesman bought nike puma y3 cheap shoes in my shoeshoppe.www.shoeshoppe.biz.www.thankshoes.com www.airshooes.com

I hate to tell you this accordguy, but it only gets worse! I just got done installing better speakers in all the doors and the rattlefest has begun in earnest. And this is with only a HU and better speakers. I am going to systematically go through and eliminate the rattles until i have them all. The unforetunate side effect of an interior made entirely out of hard plastic....

exactly. there is so much plastic in there that each car will present a challenge for dampening.
really though, to get good sound in any model of car will require some work in this area. it's part of the system setup really...
