What do you use and which would you use? I've heard brown bread is better in all aspects. I want to do my car soon and getting some feedback from users. I'm leaning toward brown bread b/c of price. Dynamat is way to overpriced.
Thanks,
Thanks,

I've read nothing but good things about eDead from Elemental Designs. Its pricing along makes it a great deal. I believe the eDead v1SE² is the best bang for the buck. Unfortunately I dont speak from personal experience, but I've done a good amount of reading on it and its the way im going soon. Do a search and see what you find.

dynamat IS way overpriced. the only reason i use it is because i work at an audio shop and i can get it for cheap. i have seen/heard brown bread and b quiet, both of which i'd recommend.

edead. about 180-200sq feet of v1 matt (3-5 layers depending on panel size) and just over 3 gallons of the v3 liquid.
i cant help but claim i did such a good job with the edead that it kinda sucked putting the interior back in... only negative thing i have to comment on about the matte edead i used is that its not as sticky or supple as brownbread or dynamatt...
dont underestimate heculiner. i used herc in my inner sail panels/wheel wells, and just one heavy brushed on coat has the same effect of around 1-2 layers of matte. it BLOWS AWAY the liquid edead. if you want to use liquid on hard areas, get herculiner. i got 5-6 coats of edead on the doors and i dunno if its even as good as one layer of matte.
heres a pic of herculiner in the sail panel pockets,
before i put this stuff back there, and was driving the car without the interior for awhile, it sounded like a pack of black cats was going off from all the roadnoise coming from the sail panel speaker holes... after the herc was laid down, nothing.

check out www.raamaudio.com , their BXT mat is great stuff. A lot higher quality than the edead v1se2. Ive used quite a bit of both in my bug. The only thing i perfered about the edead was it was a little more flexible, but this is from them using a cheaper backing.
I have a 60ft roll of raammat just chilling waiting to go into my newly aquired TA
