I don't know what you paid for the mouse pads but the fat mat was $25 from a local installer and was enough to cover two fairings.

 

I asked a local guy that has been doing high end stereo work in cars and bikes for years about using dynomat. I really trust this guy.

He told me that dynomat was great at preventing vibrations in large panels such as car doors, hoods, trunks and such. Also great at reducing road noise in a cage. He said that dynomat would certainly help but that the foam rubber was a better option for the small area inside the fairing.

According to him dynomat does little for controling the pressure wave off the back of a larger speaker like my 6X9's. He says the foam rubber absorbes and dissipates the pressure wave from the rear of the speaker, allowing the speaker to move freely without having to fight against the returning pressure wave.

I know just enough about stereo's to probably get me in trouble. I used the foam rubber mouse pads because he said thats what I needed to use. I have never used dynomat, so I don't know how it would work compared to the foam rubber. I can only speak from my experience about the mouse pads...They do what he said they would do.

 

Great idea. I will try this with my stock fairing speakers

 

might have to try this

 

I used J&Ms precut foam on the inside of the outter fairing and didn't notice much improvement. Then I found the speaker baffles shown in the thumbnail below and installed them over the back of all 4 Hertz 6.5 speakers and got a noticable improvement all around.

 

Dawm another thing i need to put on my bike... well the wife wont be happy but hey she'll get over it thank you for the info

 

 

where did you get the speakers baffles & how much were they?

 

Just get some 1/4 or 1/2 inch foam and glue it in. That's all you need..

 

I'll have to do that,I have the fairing off now to do the oil temp gauge and new radio and amp, let you know how it sounds.
