polyfill wrap for speakers
I read several thread in the audio section, which describe how much better speakers sound wrapped.
I'm going to wrap the batwing speakers, but I can find any info on wrapping the lower speakers or the tour pack speakers. Will it help since they are already in a small enclosure?
My stereo is super loud (2 amps) and sounds clear, but for 5 bucks it's worth taking it apart if it will make it even better.
Does anyone have experience wrapping all their speakers?
It's 110 degrees here this week - too hot to ride.
You guys up north are so lucky!!! It's only been a couple weeks since the heat rolled in and I'm already feeling the itch.

I just wrapped my fairing speakers two days ago, what a difference. I don't have the lower speakers but with the arc audio mpak 6 it made the bass from the 6.5s a lot more pronounced. figured I would put my 2 cents in on the wrap. btw make sure you wrap it well, one wrap around wont do anything mine looked like big *** cotton ***** when I was done.

I wrapped six.
On My Ultra I wrapped the ones in the bat wing also some dyna mat. I put some pollyfill in the lower woofers and also the rear pods. The sound improved. I have 2 amps in the fairing and was carefull I didn't come in contact with the amps. What I like the most is the vibrations decreased.

Good advice. I will be mindful to keep it away from the amps.

Cool. I'm convinced and headed out to the garage to pull it apart.
When finished, I'll post how it sounds
