if u think so then go for it, who gives a fuck wat a bunch of assholes on the net thinks?

I mean I already bought the 36sqft pack and installed it and im perfectly happy with it... I just wanted to see what some other internet people thought. I dont really listen to other people, I take what they say and compare it to multiple sources before ever making a purchase. I spent about 3-4 months designing the system that I just installed and I got one hell of a price.

Second Skin is the single best deadening company on the market. /thread

Amen to that. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

so After reading this twice...I believe 36 sqft of dynamat extreme is well worth the 96$ that I paid for it. On second skins website the Damplifier Pro is about $160 for 40sqft w/o shipping.

13 mils thicker... 67 vs 80... I still dont believe its worth $60 + shipping charges. Just My opinion.

Dynamat Extreme is a great product. For $96 shipped you should eat it up all day long.

There are several other differences actually.

If you are going to compare anything to DE, it should be our entry level product Damplifier, which is closer in quality.

Thickness is a decent measurement to go by but it does not tell the entire story.

Density of a product is where it is at.

We can make Damplifier 2.5 mm thick (100 mils) simply by removing a defoaming agent in the formula of the butyl and expanding the extruder some. This will allow more air bubbles to build up in the formula and will thicken up the product. The weight will however be the same at any thickness we want. So basically thickness not the best data to measure by, though it is important. Density related to foil thickness, matched up with viscosity and heat resistance is the ultimate combination of CLVED success.

Check out the true, unpublished specs on Damplifier Pro -

.63 lbs per sq foot net (without the paper liner)

500 degree heat rating

6 mils of foil..

So even though 36 sq feet is 36 sq feet, you get a lot more with 36 sq feet of Damplifier Pro that with 36 sq feet of most other products.

Hope that helps

On a side note, a great product that is very affodable is raammat BXT. Rick is a hell of a guy and you can't go wrong with his product!

well ****, that was a very useful post (no sarcasm here)

After using Second Skin sound deadening products, I will never even look at anything else. You couldn't pay me to put any other crap in my car.

Damplifier FTW!

That was a very good and honest post. I thank you for your time for responding in this thread. Ill probably go ahead and buy some second skin later on down the line if I ever do a really really serious install.

BS... if I paid you $500 to put dynamat in your car youd be a fool not to. EVERYBODY has a price //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

I just need to replace the 9883 with the 9887 for the MUCH better processing and 4v preouts.
