Nice ride man. The Speed6 is a crazy sleeper.
I also run a Roadster66 in my Accord. I was just wondering, how much of a pain was setting up/tuning the amp in that position? I did a similar mount on a dividing panel and had to pull it down to get the thing tuned.

thanks dude

its not the worst thing i have done, but its not easy. i have to use one of those mechanics mirrors to see the knobs, and a little 1/4 flathead bit to adjust.

I love the black and white. Very clean looking. How much quieter did the deadener on the floor make your ride? Looks like a ton of it!

sound damping on a truck always makes a big difference.
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.

it help a ton! i wish i would have used my db meter and done a before and after

before i couldnt have a normal conversation with people in the back seat.

i did the doors first, and it helped, but the floor and trunk really seemed to make the most difference

after it was all in was (is) so quite it was a little odd merging onto the freeway. it felt like i was doing something wrong. you know the feeling you get when you have headphones on and it feels like it ruins your perception of whats going on around you? it was sort of like driving with that. im used to it now luckly

Did you do only sound dampening mat, like Roadkill or did you put any of the foam mat on top of that? Doing my floor next.

i used a pretty cheap and thin home carpet pad on top of the roadkill on the floor. not sure if it helped, (or it could even be doing most of the help!)

but im happy with the results now!

Thanks B! I went ahead and bought some Overkill to put on top of the Roadkill.
