[QUOTE="Quartersawn, post: 8673621, member: 676770"] After a successful first venture into car audio with the install of my Kenwood DDX9705s head unit, my tinkering gland is tingling. Time to do some sound treatment. My door panels rattled like a children's toy even with the stock head unit. Oddly enough, after playing with the EQ and setting it up a little better the rattles have improved.... Until I wanna jam out. [B][U][I]Goals:[/I][/U][/B] Eliminate plastic rattles Lower road noise to an acceptable level so I do no HAVE to turn the music up loud to enjoy it on the interstate. [I][U][B]Not Goals:[/B][/U][/I] Competition level sound treatment I am a lover of good music but am not an audiophile. I do not have the ear for perfect sound and frankly don't want one. I took the time today to do some recon. Figured out how much space I have to work and did some measuring Pic below [ATTACH]5117._xfImport[/ATTACH] ^^^ Passenger door panel [ATTACH]5121._xfImport[/ATTACH] ^^^ Door panel off [ATTACH]5119._xfImport[/ATTACH] ^^^ My available openings [ATTACH]5122._xfImport[/ATTACH] ^^^ Hole in the water barrier right over the woofer [ATTACH]5120._xfImport[/ATTACH] ^^^ Inside of the door panel.
