[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8531344, member: 574798"] Yes, it's normally for studios to get rid of that echo effect in a room. Came across this interesting article which is what made me interested in this stuff. [URL="http://www.acousticalsurfaces.com/blog/soundproofing/sound-proofing-vs-sound-absorbing-the-difference-between-blocking-and-absorbing/"]Soundproofing vs Sound Absorbing - What's the Difference? - Acoustical Surfaces[/URL] I still didn't know what kind of effect it did in car audio but I've been reading people were using them in cars with success. It was a bit pricey for the good stuff and the cheap stuff looks paper thin. I saw a lot of good reviews on this product and it was only $18 so I figured it was worth a shot. The worse that can happen is I hate it, take it out, and lose $18. UPDATE....
