How to improve car audio and acoustics

Reduce vibrations and improve car audio
Loudspeakers and subwoofer causes vibrations in bodywork, doors and paneling of a car, in any vehicle really. This results in poor music quality and in the worst case nasty sounding vibrations and even rattling outside of the vehicle. By adding weight to the bodywork in the form of Vibraflex Normal or Extreme anti-drumming, this will all be prevented or disappear.

How to insulate bodywork and doors to improve car audio
Remove all paneling and upholstery and clean all the bodywork very thoroughly. The parts that you need to insulate are all the parts where loudspeakers or subwoofers are mounted or place at. In case of most subwoofers the boot of the car. Loudspeakers are mostly mounted in the car doors and/or back panels. Insulate the inside of the doors and the frames on which the upholstery is attached. Vibraflex needs to be warmed up to just above room temperature, this makes the product supple and easy to apply.

It's important to avoid air bubbles between the Vibraflex sheets and the surface. Anti-drumming works on the principle that it holds the surface, this insulates the gong effect. Air bubbles can also cause rust. With our pressure roller you can avoid this.
