AlphaDamp Sound Deadener Review

[DGold]

Finally I am able to do my review on AlphaDamp from Second Skin. This is long overdue so I wont bullshit too much.

Overall, I am impressed and I only applied one layer, the true test will be later today when I get to open up the subs and see how the roof flexes. I figured the roof would be the best place to see a good before and after. I did sound deaden a small patch of the floor and will be putting a little on the hatch. I only got 20 sq ft so the roof has the priority.

Before pics, got a little out of hand with the Efoam but it was kind of fun. Will be adding more eventually.

After Pics.

First piece.

AFTER

Very pleased with the results thus far. More to come after I put a little on the back hatch.

Looks good.... I saw where the winner of a second skin contest gained 1 or 2 Dbs just from damplifier on his roof. I think it was in a Durango. Good job and enjoy.

Awesome review thus far, can't wait to see what the final verdict is!

Thanks, I'm excited to see how much this impacts the back hatch of my Durango.

Here's an older video of my Durango before it was sound deadened.

*Skip to around 30 seconds.

In the after video you can see the flex is much less obnoxious. The panel seems to move as a whole and it much more quiet. Only one layer of AlphaDamp is on the roof panels.

That's definitely a noticeable difference.

Have any plans for getting it metered?

[DGold]

If all works out I will be adding another AQ3500 in the next coming months then going to a few shows next summer. Been wanting to get it metered for quite awhile. Sadly it never got metered before the deadener was applied. No shops around here have termlabs. We drove around everywhere we could within like an hours drive. No luck.
