afrakes Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 So I have a llist of what I want to do, but I'm on a very tight budget s I have narrowed it down to two options. The budget is $100. Option 1: I can either upgrade my 3.5 inch midrange speakers in my dash to either the infinity kappa series or the rockford punch series, both coaxial, but infinity has an external crossover which I like. Option 2: purchase a trunk pack of damplifier by second skin. Because I have absolutuly horrible rattles originating mostly in the trunk. With my budget I can only afford damplifier, not damplifier pro. Noot sure what to do, help me!

WastedTalent Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 damplifier. sounds like your ok with your speakers (at least for now) and hate the rattles so based just purely on that, I'd get the damplifier. Sheena = pedobear
afrakes Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Posted August 22, 2012 Yeah that's what I'm leaning towards too, my only setback is that my 3.5s I had in there blew so I'm out a set of speakers all together... Never really realized how much a difference they made until I didn't have them. Will there be much of a difference between damplifier and damplifier pro in my case?

WastedTalent Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 From what I've heard, no. pro is twice (or a little more than twice) as thick so it's better obviously but that's not saying the normal stuff sucks. They say their damplifier is like other people's "pro" or "extreme" or their top notch stuff. So if all your doing is your trunk, wouldn't be a huge difference, just a minor one if one at all. Again, all based on what I've read on this forum, on other forums, online, etc. I am buying some hopefully this weekend so I'll find out for myself shortly. Sheena = pedobear
afrakes Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Posted August 22, 2012 Alright I will probably go with the sound deadening, thanks again! Let me know how yours works Vehicle: 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD WT Head Unit: Pioneer DEH- Mids/Highs: Focal Integration ISC 165’s (front) Subs/Amps: TBD

Guest Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 i hate how infinity speakers sound. every line. way too bright and harsh for my taste. and no mid range either. its all highs and lows. i'd honestly pick rf > infinity for mids and highs.
bassface Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 knuconceptz is coming out with a supposedly great sound damping material next month, also supposed to be cheap. kno knoise i think its called.

I may just gave to wait then... Knowing how goods their products are, they would have to be quality sheets of sound deadening... How did u hear about out?
