sound dampening

Thread rating:  |
Deputy Dog - 03 Feb 2008 20:34 GMT A while back I installed an aftermarket sound system in my 96 GTS. This is the problem.....since I now get great bass response when certain bass notes orlow frequncies hit I get a vibration sound. I have the speakers isolated by mounting them with a neoprene ring between them and the mounting surface(doors and rear deck). It sounds like a "buzz". I think I may have a feww broken tack welds some where in the trunk hood or in the area. I really can't pin it down any further than that. Has any one had this problem before and if so how did ya manage to deal with it?
Hey dwight, which sound shop did ya use to get your head unit installed, I may need to purchase some sound dampening material(to try and solve my problem) from them if they have it.

Not silly at all, it was a contributor to the problem. I managed to use some cardboard to do some temporary wedgeing till I get some dynamat to kill it perm like.

Be just slightly considerate of others and turn down your f.cking radio.

It happens to be a class set up which happens to replicate sound quite accurately which causes the harmonic vibration. Maybe the next time you open that little brown round spot undr the horses tail you use for a mouth, you might want to have at least half an idea of what you are talking about.

My apologies Dave, I stumbled on your post immediately after getting home from a hellish commute, complete with being stuck for almost an hour next to a black wannabe loser blasting his "my life sucks and it's all your fault" hip hop garbage.
I took it out on you and I'm sorry.

Of course you know you asked for this problem because a GTS is not supposed to HAVE a radio... :oP

While I do disagree with the appraoch, although I think the apology was a good act, there are an awful lot of inconsiderate people out there who don't mind infringing on your, or anyone else's, space with their stereos. In a great many cases, they are the same ones who would go ballistic if you were to infringe upon their space. I believe in the olden days when I was growing up it had something to do with something called respecting the rights of others; including the right not to have your ears violated to the point of a migraine while stuck in traffic. Talk about justification for road rage.........

Talk about justification for road rage......... Boy do I agree there are a lot of inconsiderate people in the world. Unfortunately my Son and my SO's Daughter are two of them. I can tell when they arrive in the area because the bass rattles the windows in the house. I've discussed this with my Son repeatedly with only limited success. Lately he turns down the stereo before he arrives home. I can only hope he does at other times as well. When on the open road, I could care less how loud someone else plays their stereo. But for goodness sake, why do some people think they need to keep basting the stereo while they are in a store, or buying gas. I can't tell you how often I am at a gas station and there is a car in an adjacent bay with the base so loud it is rattling the windows in my car - and often the owner of the car is not even at the car - they are inside the store paying for the gas or buying something. I have the same complaint about cars in stop and go traffic. When I had a convertible it was annoying to be trapped in traffic next to some Rap/Rock/Country Music enthusiast with the stereo so loud the sides of his vehicle were vibrating. Seems that people who listen to NPR never have the need to play Morning Edition or Car Talk at 200 dB. I already know that my Son has permanently impaired his hearing. I predict a booming business for hearing aides....

Because they need to show the world that they are _badass_ with their big sounds. It's personal insecurity at its finest.

Solution: Rip keys out of ignition and throw across heavy traffic.

I like Barber's 2nd Orchestral Essay at full volume, but that final chord could blow my speakers. And I don't care if people I pass by are surprised to hear Rachmaninoff piano concertos being played at healthy sound levels.
Seriously, though, I'm one who likes to play my music loud, but I think I'm mindful when there are others close enough to hear. I don't inflict my tastes on others around me consciously, and if I forget to lower the volume at a red light, I apologize.

Not saying he was 100%, but he did give it a darn good effort, and seldom was a problem after that. We won't mention the homemade pipebomb found after he moved to his own place. LOL

After a few seconds of total irritation, I revved it up over 3000 RPM and smoked this little A$$ out, it was pumping my exhaust directly into his window. Boy was he pissed, turn about is fair play. My passenger and I couldn't help but break out laughing. We enjoyed reliving that case of perfect timed poetic justice that for many months...

Yet another reason why I allow plenty of separation, even when stopped at a light. I've pulled up alongside Nobody many times, where their stupid bent tailpipe is blowing exhaust in my face.
It takes all the enjoyment out of my smoking, y'know.

Is that one of those pipes with exhaust that I could feed into my oxygen tanks? 'Cause I keep one on the passenger seat at all times, and it can never be too full.
And I've already pointed out that you wouldn't hear my stereo, if we were sitting at a red light.

You're taking your life into your own hands there. Big truck/small man syndrome is rampant today. B

But I guess the word is getting out, because I get 20 to 30 emails each and every day from people willing to help me with my weenie winkie.
