Too much Vibration on the Trunk
I just added a JL Audio 12w6 to a mustang convertible. What I'm getting now
is a lot of distortion due to the amount of pressure the speaker box is pushing out. What I'm experiencing is that my trunk is vibrating right at the middle to the point where it doesn't touch the trunk rubber sealer any more. If I lay my hand from the outside and add enough pressure, I can densen the vibration to a more comfortable level. When I'm inside of the car, the vibration is so loud that it distort the bass coming from the trunk. Which makes it unenjoyable to listen to music. Is there any solution to this? I have consultent with some audio pro's and they have told me that Dynamat will not work since the pressure is pushing the trunk up and the distortion is the trunk bounding up and down. I'm only pushing less than 500 Watts to the speaker. I've seen other cars where they push 2000 Watts and the distortion is quite low. |

That little rubber lining may be worn out, or maybe you just need a bigger/thicker one. Try adding towels. If the vibrations go away, that's your problem. check this site out: http://installer.com/tech/rattles.html |
