Dynamat in fairing

Well, you already spent the $$ so does it matter? I have dynamat in my fairing and it made a little bit of difference. I just recently wrapped my speakers with polyfill and that made a more noticeable difference in bass tightness. I had a couple sheets laying around that were used for package cushioning. Buy a cheap pillow and get it from there....

I used a $4.00 1/2 inch place mat on the outer shell of the fairing, have nothing in bags yet except stuff with the same speakers and the bass in the fairing is more than my bags. ericl did you get your amp dialed in mine friggin hurts my ears in the garage still waiting for the weather to break in Il

As someone mentioned, it adds weight (possibly minimal), also will effect the temperature in there which will make the poorly set up temp guage, work worse than it allready does.

there is no way I would be able to adjust the amp in the garage. 70% volume on the Head Unit and set gain to distortion, the system will make your ears bleed at 40%. Used the 1kHz test tone and multimeter, hertz are 130 watt RMS at 4 ohm. Square root of Wattage x ohms = 22.8 volt output on the amp. No clipping, friggin loud.

These mats are made from the same product that my old military sleeping bag/PT mat is made of. And that has kept me dry for 8 years! i just did not want to cut the PT mat as i still use it when my ole lady boots me out and i have to sleep under the stars!!

I actually had a couple of squares of polyfil that was used as packaging cushion. I basically trimmed these down so I could fully cover the speakers and tuck the sides into nooks/crannies of the fairing/brackets. Putting the outer fairing back on will keep everything in place...

Most naysayers and haters have never done it. These are the same folks who pay $40 for 2 HD shirts, a PIAA headlight bulb, tassles, grips, pegs, axle covers, points cover, etc. etc. I offer it to customers and i have it in my pickup truck.
In the fairing, it helps reduce vibration and assists with speaker sound. It also makes the fairing 'feel' more structurally sound. Looks like you did a good job.
