lol. gone are those days with ts20's hissing in the ears and the sub booming away to glory.
And yes i have spent a lot of time in the car and wasted a lot of fuel idling, just to listen the setup.
Glad you liked the setup and thanks for the kind comments.

Where all did you got this applied? I mean front doors and did you get the boot done also? If so then how much in total did you pay for the damping?

The damping material has not been applied well on the outer panel - should have used a roller to press the sheet to the panel. Otherwise, the adhesive will gradually fail and the sheet will come off.

The install looks really good otherwise. Enjoy, @live2drive!

Congrats for the upgrades Abhinav.
Need to audition it again.
Obviously the weak part is the sub!

Cheers!

Thank you sir. I'll check that again with the installer. The pic shows damping in process. I forgot to click the final pic.

Very true frank. Yes i like the sub. But it actually acts funny at times. The poor sub gets confused with two consecutive quick beats and ends up in an extended bass note.

Thats Why I am telling you to change the sub. The subwoofer is not controlled, Its just going BOOM BOOM BOOM

BTW gurus, The Box is a 2.15 Cu. FT one ported, Will changing the box help him?? I feel the box is very big for this particular subwoofer.

Yes the box is indeed HUGE. 2.15 sq ft. Pic attached for reference.

Gurus, will a sealed box help? Bass is li'l boomy now. Will a sealed box help to get tighter bass? Specs say 1.25 sq ft for a sealed box and 1.65 sq ft for a ported box.

Try both boxes according to the specs.

You might (not) need to upgrade the sub.
