2006 Civic sound dampening project

[JaCe]

well given what i've heard about lifestyle, i doubt they'd do a bad job, so $200 for dynamat material + dynamat installation + speaker installation sounds quite reasonable. does that include installing the amp and running the wiring etc.? what about tweeters? from what i've read, installing non-standard (i.e. in Aus, any) tweeters in the stock positions at the base corners of the windscreen is a major dremeling job.

Might've poorly worded my post so I'll clarify;

$340 for either the RF P162S or MBQ DSF216
$140 for installation of splits (inclusive of wiring, etc..)
$200 for the Dynomat + Installation

As for the tweeters, if I went the RF, I'd probably put one in each corner of the windscreen and run the second one as a coaxial... but I'm actually leaning towards the MBQ DSF216. After listening to them side by side with a variety of songs I like, the MBQ are far and beyond superior (considering they are same price). Only one song had the RF's sounding a bit better, but once it went past the introduction, the MBQ gave a much more balanced and less shrill sound which I thought would be more suited to my needs. Sure it won't be as loud as the RFs, but I felt they were alot better.

also have they dynamatted an 06 civic's doors before? it's a hugely messy affair with the goop, check out my first RR door pic above. i'd ask about this as well as the tweeter installation.

Apparently they did a full system for an 06 Civic recently and they will upload the photos shortly. Everything from creating a new dash to rebuilding the boot.

Btw, on another topic!... what do you guys think of this;

I have my HU with 4 speaker outputs. The rear speaker lines are connected up to a line-out converter (with the speakers also plugged in). These line outs are connected to my 4ch amp, which has 2 channels in use for the sub. If I were to use the other 2 channels for the front speakers; is this a good idea? It'll save money in terms of no need for an additional line-out, but it means my HU's front 2 speaker channels won't be used... what do you think?
