GEN 2 Doors rattling from the bass

17022 · Apr 13, 2018

Seems to be only a certain frequency range, but it happens often. Anyone else’s truck do this?

Super annoying. 2017 Scab 802A.

Mine too. I have to push on the door to make it stop, it’s annoying.......

Don't worry, boys. If your music is loud enough to rattle the doors, then it's plenty loud enough to degrade your hearing and you will shortly be unable to hear the doors rattle. This little problem is going to solve itself.

did you guys just here the geeze alarm sounding? :biggrin:

@Ruger is r. he’s ri. well, he’s got a poi...

man. i just can’t bring myself to type that.

hearing loss is cumulative and irrecoverable. Although at the volumes you’re seeing with the muted 25w rms of the Sony/ B&O amps and speakers, the tweeters are probably causing the hearing damage for you.

But that’s another topic. So is why the geeze alarm was sounding.

if you pull the door panels, the speakers can loosen up against their mount points. check out @Guy’s stereo for under $500 thread, I think he used some kind of gunk on his mount points to minimize that rattling sound.

I didn’t, so I get a bit of buzzing too.

@smurfslayer is RIGHT. Damn right.

I'd tell you, "Ask me how I know," but I wouldn't be able to hear the question.

"Can you hear me now?"

WHAT???

This happens with the volume at, like, 10.... not loud by any means.

Any idea where that post was made? I’ve read probably the first 20 pages and haven’t come across that yet. Got some more reading to do I guess.

Put some Dynamat in the doors. That should help a lot. I used to have a Tremor and did that. Made a big difference. I put it on both the outer door skin and on the inside behind the door panel. I removed the speaker first so it was installed onto the Dynamat when I put it back in.

Perhaps @Guy would comment?

I think you're mostly joking, but it's the higher frequencies and high-volume drone that damage hearing, not the mid-volume mid-bass from the door speakers that should not make a door buzz.

dynamat is your friend...
