ok so I have 2 12s with 695 watts rms at 2 ohms powering them
it sounds like absolute ass from the outside, its embarrassing
I know there are many threads on this, but it seems no one has found a solution
I have fixed the rattling in the doors, the trunk floor, and the license plate itself
but the license plate bezel still rattles terribly
this is the part I mean, NOT THE ACTUAL LICENSE PLATE

Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
I will spend $300 on deadener if it will stop the rattling, but a lot of people say it does not work.

Yeah Promasta, it got VERY old. After I took that system out, I replaced it with a 200 watt amp and a 10" sub just to add to the music. But I got sick of even after that.

GEpower, I think he did read my story. He said he used to want the most bass possible but now he realizes that he doesn't want that, he just wants something to add to the music.

But seriously, as far as muffling the rattling bezel goes, putting any Dynamat or anything in the trunk would be wasted money. It would cancel out some road noise, but since the bezel is rattling due to vibration, not volume. So Dynamat would be useless. All you can do is exactly what everyone else on here said about putting some sponges or some kind of padding between the bezel and the car.

Also, GEpower did give some good advice.. Foam in the ears helps a lot too.
