well i could argue with u but i dont want to start a fight, so yeah those two vblack plastic thing are probly where the most of its coming from, once u get those fixed its then usually the handle mechinism on the hatch door
o and btw what i did really worked for me, so yeah i can afford to dynamt the entire rear of the truck, so yeah even though its not the right way it still works

Wrong again. If its not the right way then it 'doesnt' work...You are not an expert just because you have a system in your car. Maybe im just a prick, but your bad advice is really starting to irritate...

My favorite deadener by far is secondskin. There normal Damplifier is actually as thick as Dynamat extreme and its much stickier...

Wrong. There is no need to open a window when you play your system.just take care of the rattles the right way...

are you saying that opening a window when your system is on makes no difference? if so, i have to disagree w/ you on that.

No no. I agree opening a door, window, or hatch makes a load of diffirence in certain aspects. Thats how we get those nice numbers in the kick :-)... What I was trying to say is that it is the wrong way to eliminate rattles...

ok i wasn't sure which way you were going w/ that. i agree thats the wrong way to stop rattling. i used the dynomat extreme on my tailgate, side panals in the cargo area and the roof and i dont have a problem with rattling in the rear except the window squeaks but no real fix to that i dont think. my overhead console still makes noise and door anals a lil bit but its not like some cars where all you hear is rattling body parts and no bass i hate that

beacuse low frequencies are directional, a sub enclosure can go in any place in the car. they will not sound signifgantly differnt from any place in the car. put them where you have room. mine are in the back. aimed backward. sound sick. still gotta work on the rattle from teh outside though.

Not true,  and I have done the testing to prove it.  two ways will be louder in majority of blazers.

My test vehicles were a 92 2dr, a 96 4dr and a 97 2dr.

With the exact same power, and exact same sized enclosure, exact same tuning freq, Subs up port firing backwards and subs up port firing towards pass side rear were louder on the termlab meter. 


Positions tested - subs up port up, subs rear port rear, subs front port front, subs up port to pass side, subs up to drivers side.  I went through all of the possible combinations and those two were  louder in each truck.

Generally in hatchbacks and SUV's the loudest setup is sub up port back. I've always had the best SPL results this way...

Keep in mind that the sound will be 90 degrees out of phase.

granted there are some differences based upon what there fireing against, the enclosure, and the **** in the car. but as the frequency gets lower the sound should become less directional.
