Dynamat vs Second Skin Damplifier Pro

Hey guys, so I was just about to purchase the Second Skin Damplifier Pro bulk kit (36 sq ft) for my front doors and my trunk. With shipping, this would cost me about 190$. Then simply out of curiousity, I thought I would check the price of dynamat, just so I could compare. And to my surprise, the dynamat was much much cheaper. A bulk pack of new dynamat xtreme is sold for 137$ shipped on ebay. So now im leaning on getting the dynamat.

Second Skin Damplifier - 140$ (50 sq ft) (will be able to get rear doors too)
Second Skin Damplifier Pro - $190 (36 sq ft)
Dynamat Xtreme - $137 (36 sq ft)


Which would you get?

From personal experience I'd go with Damp Pro...even would take regular Damplifier over Dynamat Xtreme

I just used a bunch of the regular Damplifier and I have no complaints. Sorry can't compare it to the Pro or Dynamat though.

I used to use Dynamat for my MR2 Turbo for sound system. It was awesome but I can't speak for another brand since I've never use it.

I have about 40 feet left over if anyone wants it

yea man, i was texting him earlier and he told me about that. as for now, i think i might go with a roll of raam mat. its butyl, and i can get 62 sq ft of it for 140 shipped... i think i might do that for now, and if it needs more, ill get some second skin and cover up whereever else it rattles.
