Please let me know how you soundproofed the cab and does it really help.Thanks

 

X:

Well it started like this.


Then it looked like this.


Seriously, I dynamatted the entire interior. Makes a world of difference. No more engine or road noise(supercharger still can be heard, thank goodness).

Here's the link on the install. https://www.f150online.com/f150board...ML/001604.html

Good Luck.

did you take the dash an everything off?

 

pawn:

I got up under as far as I could without removing the dash.

I'll be removing the trim pieces again and spraying the insides soon.

I have to agree! Huge differance!

TampaBay,

Did you spray the undercoating on the inside of the cab or under the chassis? I am guessing the latter as the fumes would be pretty tough to take for a while!

 

hey tampa bay

how big are the speakers? (10's 12's???)
is that jsut a f-150 premade speaker box?
what kind of amp and how does it sound? Does is sound better now that the interior is more sealed? A deeper bass?
Just wonering

Jake:

The rubberized coating was applied to the interior over the layers of dynamat. You're right about the odor. It did linger for a couple of days. After that, it was gone.

Blue:

The speakers are 10". The box is made by MTX and looks like it came from Ford that way... Bass is excellent, but new 10" are in order. I'm thinking Polk Momo's or Infinity Perfects.. Don't know yet.
Amp. is 500w. 5-channel. One 100w channel is dedicated just to the subs. Have to turn bass gain almost all the way down.

Soundproofing really makes for a quality sound experience.
