Does this work anywhere near as well as mats on doors around the speakers to make the sound better?

I have never used the product in an effort to make speakers sound better, I am guessing mats would have a greater effect. This stuff did help quiet the noise in the doors on a '51 street rod I own, I put some insulation in the doors as well and using the two together helped a lot!

Works best on metal (floor pan, trunk pan, bare interior of the door) I do not recommend spraying on any fabric and would test before spraying on any plastic. It's like spray on rubber. Good luck.

Seems to work just as well and easier to fill in tight spaces in the wheels wells etc

I used it in the trunk of a Mustang and it really toned down the road noise. I'm about to use it in my Impreza and I'm very confident it will work. Keep in mind to use several light coats and allow for adequate drying time.

Works best when used in conjunction with the same brand mats. Spray over the mats to cover and use the spray for tight areas and corners.

Yes. It reduces noise significant ly. But I am not sure how the neighbour's below are being affected. They didn't complained. It can depend on the building also.

These things are awesome. You attach the bass drum mute with Velcro and all the drums are dampened enough. Play while people are home without being annoying, seems like I just close the door and they can barley hear me. Hope this helps! Keep drumming man!

Yes you can. The armband does cover the speakers but the material doesn't hinder any sound. It sounds slightly amplified in my opinion.

Yeah. This sound machine does pretty loud. If it is near by it should do the job.

Maybe a little bit, but it's not really the intended purpose. This is more just to deaden the sound of the room, getting rid of a little bit of echo and ringing.

i'm not sure because the acoustics are different when comparing and apartment vs. a gym; however, 1 might work given the volume always appears louder in gyms.

I'm almost 100% sure that lining the mats would make no discernible difference in sound. It is designed to be placed on metal that would normally rattle or vibrate thereby transferring the sound from the outside to the inside of the vehicle.

Putting anything in front of a speaker will dull the sound but it will still work. Or just put it in the ceiling

it dampens the sounds to a muffle but doesn't stop it entirely. I find that most of the sound "leakage" occurs around the gap in the doors. Make sure those are sealed.

This will help prevent reflection of high frequencies but will not do much for lows or vibrations. The best thing to do would be to put a layer of something heavy like dynamat or a mat with a built in sound deadening layer. And the best place to put that would be the actual inside of the door. In other words, if it is a hollow door, take the thin sheet off of one side so you can see the inner workings of the door, and put them on the inside so that when you put the sheet back on you can't see anything you added. If you really want to use this, you could put it on the outside, facing the source of the noise. This will help prevent reflection of high frequencies but will not do much for lows or vibrations.

I have this in my studio and it works for me and I can barely hear the music outside my studio but I also have other soundproofing on the walls of my studio. This will absorb sound and I want to buy some more of this to put on the wall facing my driveway.

I used this to line the inside of my speakers essentially to prevent the sound waves from coming in contact with the wood. Going by this logic, to keep sound/noise from entering the room, you should line the outside of the door. Having said that, this might make your door look odd from the outside! Theoretically, you can put this on the inside of the door to provide sound proofing but I'm not sure how effective it will be.

I bought this once before to put along the shared wall in an apartment. Before laying out the felt you could hear the neighbor as if he was in the same room with us. After the installation you could hear slight muffled noise. Not 100% noise cancelation but it made a great difference.I actually used felt and a foam and carboard combination. Since you are only using it on the doors you should have enough do do a few layers. I would recommend one layer felt, one layer cardboard and one layer felt. Multiple layers for the sound to get trough will help with the noise.

I have not had this problem. Position of the speakers in the room makes a difference, close to a wall or corner can affect the amount of bass reflected. Def Tech has allowed for this and placed a knob in the back towards the bottom that allows you to decrease the amount of bass of each individual enclosure. Other than this, you would have to decrease the bass output from your receiver.

The mat will not reduce the feedback you are experiencing. I suggest you call a professional any any quality audio store.to resolve your feedback issue.

If it's not stretched to tight I believe that it would capture most of the dust, but then it will become dusty itself. Regarding the effect on sound, my experience is using cloth to cover speakers and there seems to be a subtle suppression of the "highs" with the any speaker cloth in the path.
