Well, l,m not sure this topic has been discuss before or not.

For a good ICE system, l know a good sound proff is a must for our local made car.

As l know, there is Dynamat, Lightning Audio in the market.

Can anyone list down the price and variety of the sound proff mat here?

hmmm .. wat else

- bitumen ...
- superlon
- and a few .. cant remember

which part of ur car
different location need different material

door panel, roof top, trunk
- dynamat extreme, dynamat original, sikadamp, raamat, cascade vb2, dead span

under carriage, carpet, wheel arch area
- superlon, insuflex

huh.. got like tht one ah? why le? cuz or the heat resistant izzit? dunno anything about it cuz never use... but got plan to use... as the door panel is giving me a big headache...

I oso plan to soundproof my wira leh...
Maybe add a bit to the bonnet, doors, boot (if its Necessary)

How much wud it cost?
Need to add to the roof and the floor as well?

Is it a DIY thing? or u need to send to shops?

l plan to go for door panel and boot 1st. if budget do allow, of course l want to sound proff my whole car.

Btw, how much is dynamat usually cost? Coz the shop seem want to potong me....

(dynamat extreme) RM 700-RM800 9pcs
(dynamat original) RM500-600 9pcs (price will be rm200+ for 2 front doors for 2 layer)
Each pc enuf to cover 1 door (18" x 32 around 36 sq ft)

sikadamp 360 - RM30 per pc
Each door need 3 pcs to cover up

superlon/insuflex
rm20+ for 1 m²

*price above is quoted by my installer last time, price may differ time to time, diff place,installer give diff price...so it's juz a rough guessing

added: Can be DIY for front doors and rear trunks easily
even DIY for floor board is not so difficult...depends on ur tools and ur patience
Price given is excluded for installation

door panel, roof top, trunk
- dynamat extreme, dynamat original, sikadamp, raamat, cascade vb2, dead span

under carriage, carpet, wheel arch area
- superlon, insuflex

why is this so? can explain more...

door panel, roof top, trunk
- dynamat extreme, dynamat original, sikadamp, raamat, cascade vb2, dead span
* This are sound blocker
trunk, roof top - block the low notes to go outside the car, if use superlon/insuflex the low notes will be absorb
door panel - again as a sound blocker, this sheets will seal the door panel..and make the door as a virtual enclosure..thus better mid bass effect

under carriage, carpet, wheel arch area
- superlon, insuflex
* a sound absorber, abosrb all the road noises, engine noises

i see... i thought all work the same way... install anywhere also the same...

they uses different material
so the place to put is actually different

if u wan soundproof, then forget about superlon...superlon are good in heat insulation..no good in soundproof..
use those kapas under ur carpet..those are really good...u can get it in acc shop..but it's not cheap

the kapas is good for heat insulation or sound proofing?

kapas? What kind of thing is that?

Luckily l asked you. Else l already kena potong. 1 shop quote me 1K for the dynamat. Extreme or original also not comfirm.

If Dynamat original 1 box for RM500 is quite ok. But ur price i in Miri right?

dunno wat it call..but it's a layer of something like kapas that was being compressed..wait..i take a pic for u...

this 1

thowie.. tht one good for heat insulation or soundproof?

good for soundproof....

acc shop can get that kapas thing? mebbe i should give it a try.
my rear doors rattling cos of my mid bass' . need to do semething, the cheaper the better. lol.

rattling? find where the rattling first la....sometime just screw loose or something hitting anothing only....this kapas wont help much if ur car metal rattling....sometime u only need dound dampening but not soundproof......

wat is sound dampening?

not really rattling, like can hear some vibration coming from the door at higher volumes.. like the door panel vibrating against the door frame. i guess i have to open it and see...

but putting in stuff like dynamat and all will improve my SQ and reduce road noise right? will the kapas thing help too? how about foam filling?

May i know whats the difference between Dynamat original and extreme?Currently I'm looking for Dynamat in Melaka.Anyone knows where to get it?How bout pricing?

Or if i were to do it in KL?Which shop sould i go?

If i'm not mistaken, the Dynamat Original is Rubberized Asphalt based, whereby the Extreme is Butyl based.

There is someone selling sound proof material in bulk session...
Hope this help u...

here

that 1 dono wat material 1

lol... u can ask the seller le... i also dunno wat material and how was the sound perfomance..

I would rather say it's an overpriced bitumen roll used for sealing leaking roofs, could be had for less than half the price. No offense.

U sure it is bitumen roll?

we share the same idea

I can't be 100% sure as i haven't seen the thing in real life, but from the looks of pics, it IS in fact bitumen strips that can be bought for much cheaper. Downside is, it melts when exposed in the hot weather for a while(knowing our country's wheather)

Well, i know i don't really have proof, but being myself selling some other dampening material, it wouldn't be nice for me to juz drop into a seller selling similar stuff's thread to say things or request to see then tarnish.

One thing though, i didn't post up RAAMMAT BXT60 for sale in lowyat.net, if you are interested, PM me and i'll provide u the details.

Hi,

no personal feeling. i know your concern on the bitumens and yes it is made of bitumens but this is not the one they use to seal leaking roofs. It's different.

It has been already proven that it can resist high temperature by sticking on to the Wira for few months already and still it sticks well.

wait a few months more

or mayb this is higher quality ones
well... who knows

cheers

er, i actually using the real bitumen for roof sealing..been applief for nearly a year....never fall...but i admit it's a bit messy than other material cos it's more sticky and more liquid compare with other material...

but 1 fact i found is my bitumen actually perform better than many many of the brand outside..included the material sold in forums....tested and proved by some soundproof customer.....

but is it easy to remove? won't the place be sticky sticky?

easy to remove? every soundproof material are not design to removable...:> so wat u think?

unless those oem kapas-kapas thing...

Sound dampening material is meant to be stuck on permanently, so... it wouldn't be easy to remove else it'll just defeat it's purposes

just a stoopid question here, does the sound proofing/dampening materials mentioned above block those annoying wind sound u get when travelling at around 100km/h or more? im driving a gen2 btw and teh bunyi angin is really annoying!

none of them as i know..btw, somebody mention before getting those Van rubber door lining to add to our car(double layered)..and the wind noise will be reduce...but door are harder to close...

thanks for the reply. shall research on that now. so determined to get rid of that sound.

Any comment on this product? http://www.lelong.com.my/Auc/List/2007-02DSale4946173.htm

quite good offer
even if it's not thick enuf, can stick 2 layer

but haven heard about that brand b4 thou

last time my boot lid is shaking when my subwoofers are firing.
after put superlon, no more boot vibrate.
so i think superlon is good for reducing low frequency sound aka vibration.
but if your purpose is to reduce external noise, my opinion is dont waste your time & money

if to reduce external noise? any options?

Maybe this products can help:
- Dynamat Extreme
- Deadspan
- Dampit
- Raamat
