Does anyone know a good cheap sound deadening alternative to dynamat?

i know sound in motion is a name tossed around and tweeter...but i also heard that home depot sold something similar and even with an adhesive backing just like the real stuff but only a few bucks per yard

Head to the roofing section in Home Depot. They have this stuff thats basically the same thats used to insulate shingles on a roof.

Its also much cheaper.

looks cheap and effective

It comes in a roll and you want the kind that is peel and stick. Obviously you do not want the kind that must be nailed in place. Unless you are the type that polishes head ports with a bag of sand. Ask in the roofing deparment, they'll know what you mean if you ask for underlayment, unless they are the sand polishing type.

Like many Connecticut natives I'm a hybrid Giants/Red Sox fan because of our parents. Patriots weren't around yet when I was born. Jimmy, you're a BU guy I can like.
