image dynamics > my roof

[Miles]

so with 2 12" IDQ's, my roof flexes like a tard named jimmy on roids...

but up to a certain point the sound in my truck is unbefuckingleivable... i spontaneously orgasmed once on the ride to gainesville... and then again driving around town... needs some dynamat (read: a lot) in the general roof area but other than that it's fucking sweet. big ups to tropical audio for once again hooking me up with a sweet deal on some snazzy dls gear :)

What makes you so sure dynamat is gonna keep your roof from flexing?

Glad to hear you're happy with the idqs!

My friends truck does the same thing. I was wodering how we might fix it. The only way we stopped it was having someone hold the roof through the part of the song. Post your results.

[Kirk]

have pictures of the new setup?

[Miles]

no pics yet... it's nothing special... yet... only plans i had were to dynamat the roof (not sure what else i could do :dunno: ) but if somebody has a better idea feel free to share, as this is a problem i've never had before (too much bass for my car that is)

Take some diamond plate and bolt it on top of the roof, that should help it out.. :-)

damn I'm jealous, I want more boom :)

Does it rattle when it flexes? Mine flexes like a bitch but doesnt make any sounds. All my rattles are coming from the hatch.

[Miles]

it makes an awful noise when it flexes... the roof itself is rattling... it's bad...

[TBSpyder]

I'd try to find what's rattling (ie, the headliner against the sheet metal) and somehow eleminate that. But dynamat on the roof isn't going to do a thing with the flexing. You'd need to somehow brace it with supports for any chance of eliminating flex.

[aimisgoop]

drill some ports in teh roof...DUH!

[eli]

i dont understand, how does the roof flex? like bending?

[93ex]

yeah roof flexing is common, especially in trucks/suvs

find whats rattling on the roof, maybe weld on a new support or 2..

[Bumpin Expo]

goddamn i wanna system thatll make my roof flex im jealous

[TBSpyder]

[Miles]

bump

just wanted to make sure you guys were well aware that my system rocks the fuck out.

[dropcivic]

you should hear my roof with 2 12" idmax and two d2s.

So those IDQ v2's are good, eh? I changed my mind on the planned location of the sub and I'm looking at a single 12 now instead of a single ten. Hopefully I'll be getting another job in just about 4 weeks, higher-paying than my last, and the stereo setup is right after suspension.
