Great addition to any speakers

In my opinion, these are a must for any car audio speaker installation. Specially for dash or door mounted applications. They enhance the sound and allow the speakers to perform at their best.

XTC 4" Pair of Speaker Baffles

Easy fit once you get the right alignment. Original mount came with "posts" which I needed to punch a hole in the foam. I also added a hole in the bottom for the transition wires - which were included with the speaker purchase. Thank you Crutchfield!

easy to work with. Used these on my motorcycle in the dash. Focused sound and kept moving air from disrupting sound. Lost a little bass, instruction suggest cutting the back of the baffle to help increase bass response. I havent noticed a difference yet, but I have so far been unable to ride for and extended test.

XTC 4" Pair of Speaker Baffles

These were the wrong size, so cannot precisely state what effect they would have on the installation, and I chose not to use them, instead using a rubberized spray behind the speaker location to deaden the echo (this worked well). Had they been the right size, I might have used them.

Perfect way to isolate your speaker for better sound transmission. Removed the factory insulation that surrounded the stock speakers and installed this with new speakers. I think this is one of those "must haves" when installing new speakers. Protects from environment ( doors ) and helps small speakers perform at a better level.

4" speaker baffles

They are foam speaker baffles... not too much to say about them but that they work and help to focus the sounds from your speakers into your vehicle rather than the door/trunk etc. These are fairly helpful for small speakers that don't normally produce a lot of quality sound.

Baffles do what they say!

These baffles work as described. Used these with 4 inch Kicker 41KSC44 speakers on my door panel and it provided a nice seal behind speakers. These speaker are not known for having bass, but these baffles seem to have helped it produce a decent amount that lets me know the music i'm listening too has bass. Plus, it hopefully will keep the back of my speakers protected and clean!

You might be better off using another deadening product depending on the dimensions of your speakers and the location to be installed. They were not very useful in my smaller truck pillar openings.

Speaker Baffles

I decided to buy these speaker baffles because it was cheap and it said it would improve the quality of my listening experience so I said what the heck. However, I wasn't very impressed with them. The idea is good, to reduce vibration but I found that installing them was difficult. Because they are just too big, I would have been just plenty fine without the speaker baffles.

Better instructions

They work fine for what they are, but the instructions don't give any indication on where to punch the hole for the wiring. I exercised common sense and poked it through the bottom, but they should really point that out (or mention that you need to make a hole in the first place).

Could be easier to install

The density & general construction of these baffles is good, but I found them too deep for my installation. Rather than send them back I just removed about a inch from the middle and glued them back together. Thereon the installation was relatively easy.

These do what they're supposed to do - contain the sound of my speakers in the door. I admittedly didn't try the speakers first without these baffles, but the cavity inside the door is HUGE. I can only imagine that I'd get some of that hollow, echoing sound we've all heard if I hadn't used these baffles.

I have been using baffles for a long time now and I am never disappointed. I strongly recommend them if you are installing from speakers free air. These baffles will not only protect them but also clean up that hollow in the air sound commonly found in most free air installed speakers.

Just what I was looking for

I purchased these speakers to replace the 18 year old blown out factory speakers in my Geo Metro. I have a 50 mile per day commute and wanted to hear my music without all of the ferocious distortion. I don't listen to the radio very loud, so these work just fine. In my noisy car the comfortable listening volume is 16 - 20; these speaker don't start to distort until around 30. I'm well please with the speakers the price and especially Crutchfield for making everything so easy.

Choose wisely, doesn't help everybody!

Toyota Corolla - Door speakers and rear hatchback speakers. 4" and 5" sizes. These were pointless for my car. I compared the sound with and without them, and I absolutely preferred them without the baffles. The back speakers actually sit in a tuned port enclosure, so I lost that effect by installing these (I was unaware of the enclosure until I took off the covers.) The front door speakers are smaller, and having the baffle installed killed off some of the depth of the bass coming from the space behind the door panel. Say what you want about the sound "quality", tightness, etc., but without any other speakers up front, the low-end sound seemed to just go away when I had the baffles installed. This might be fine if you have other speakers filling in those gaps in sound, but for me, these things ended up in the trash can. I'm not saying they don't work, but just not for me and 15-year old Corolla.

Definately improved sound quality and eliminated the rattle in the dash but the amount of torque required to hold down the speaker is enough to tear a hole while mounting.

A change from thin to bodacious!

This ones DO change the way speakers sound... Prior to the installation, the sound was OK but lacked some body; after these were installed, the sound gained a lot of consistency, similar as if the loudness control of your receiver has been just activated. They don´t add any bass at all, sorry, but that character is part of the speaker desing per se instead of any accesory you may add.

Good protection, bad sound!

I bought these for my install for a 2005 wrx. The speakers are polk db400's. First off, I made the mistake of not testing the sound of the speakers without the baffles. Anyway, the system sounded good with the baffles in but I have a sub in the car so I didnt realize how much bass I was loosing. So I turned off the subwoofer and found out the speakers had like no midbass, I was dissapointed and not pleased after that. They say these baffles improve bass response not kill it! Knowing these are great speakers from a previous install I knew it had to be the baffles. I called Polk support to find out what they thought about the baffles and the tech said that would completely kill the sound of the driver. So I took my door cards off, pulled the speakers out and cut the baffle backs in half so air flow was good, but still had protection from water coming off the windows above; looks like a speaker hood. The end result was nothing but great sound with some protection but the audio was the way it was intended for. I only recommend this product if you properly vent the rear of the driver othervise dont be talked into buying these.

XTC 4" Pair of Speaker Baffles

These are a "must have," especially if you have small speakers. Even with bass blockers, which helped a little, installed on my 4 inch Pioneer TS-G1040Rs, they still bottomed out during sudden bass thumps. Having these baffles behind each one seals up the rearends so the woofer cone has a bit of cushion. They sound WAY better now!
