[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 2196571, member: 555320"] Another good method is to get some chicken wire (very open wire mesh), eggcrate foam and regular open cell foam. Stick the chicken wire between the eggcrate foam and open cell foam, then sew or glue them (the eggcrate and regular open cell foam) together. Reason for this, instead of using a hard surface behind the foam, is so that any waves that "make it through" the foam won't just be reflected straight back down from a hard surface directly behind the foam....it will go up into the dash cavity, bounce around a little bit and be reflected back into the foam a 2nd time [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Seems to work well. I believe Scott Buwalda was the one who I originally heard mention the above method...and many people who've tried it since have really like the results. I believe it was Derek (from forums like SIN and DIYMA) who did the above, and said he virtually eliminated the need for equalization above 1khz in his system. [/QUOTE]
