Premium sound needs premium dampening

[BaconIsAFruit]

I have the premium sound on my JLU and bass is ~60%. The vibrations are pretty bad. If you're going to include speakers capable of decent ranges, the dampening needs to be way better. With the top down, the middle roll bar is the worst.

I used to have a 2008 JKU Sahara with premium and I ended up stuffing the roll bar plastic and the rear sub with polyfil and that made a dramatic difference. I guess I am doing that again, but I don't feel like I should have to. FCA should've realized dynamat-like material was necessary.

What music are you playing ?

Mix. It doesn't seem to matter, but it's significantly worse from "soft bass" like SXM Lithium 90s rock rather than heavy bass from rap.

Of the jeep itself or polyfil'd spaces? That was all hidden inside the plastic molding of the roll bar speakers and the sub.

Polyfil"d spaces. Just Curious.
