So I just got my T2500-1 and it is going on 4 MTX TS8512-44s. The amp puts out 3500 watts @ 2ohms rms. All going in a 1972 Cutlass Supreme. My question is what can I do ,if anything, to stop the car from rattling besides dynomat? I really don't want to put that stuff in my car if I can help it...

Only way to stop rattling is deadener, though don't look at Dynamat, look at Second Skin or Audio Technix, either of them is better and cheaper.

It looks like you got so drunk, that someone came up and stole your leg.

Def going to wall it...I'm carpeting my trunk and I'm the only thing I can think to do is put the deadener in the trunk then carpet over it...

@Kranny, I'm looking for a larger alternator right now, any certain kind you suggest?

you could try a thicker deaden-er but only on the longer flat parts of the panel. it would cut down on how much you would have to use. you don't really need to do corners.

Butyl rope works pretty well also in certain applications where the dynamat type material wouldnt be practical.

We used the home depot stuff once in a dedicated theater room with 2 18 that was beign fed 8000rms and the strips compressed and became useless
