Our take on the Boom Mat 6"x9" Speaker Baffles

by Buck Pomerantz

Boom Mat baffles protect your car's new speakers from moisture and dirt. Mounted behind the speaker, the baffle forms a mounting seal that also improves sound clarity by reducing panel vibration that could transfer to the speaker.

These baffles will protect your speakers. In many applications we recommend that you cut a hole in the bottom of the baffle, or remove the entire bottom of the baffle, to maintain good bass response while still protecting your speaker from dirt and water damage. Call one of our Advisors if you have questions — they'll be happy to share their expertise with you.

    Features

    Overview: These acoustic baffles are designed to be placed behind car speakers to protect the speaker from moisture and dirt which can damage speaker components. Along with providing a sealed chamber, they also form a mounting seal between the speaker and the mounting surface to eliminate panel to frame resonance. Baffles will improve door acoustics by reducing road noise and vibrations transferred to the back of the speaker cone. The baffles are pliable and can be compressed to fit most applications.

    Dimensions:

    • Speaker Size: 6x9"
    • Minimum Cutout: 6.375" x 8.4375"
    • Maximum Depth: 4.8125"
    • Thickness:0.25"
    • Flange Size: 8.375" x 10.3125"

    good water protection very bad sound

    Written By mark from knoxville, knoxville on Thursday, August 16, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I bought these for water protection for my kenwood 5 way 6x9's. The baffles killed my sound really bad. Even with large holes cut out of the bottoms. I removed them and my sound came back. With the baffles by expensive speakers sounded like factory sound.
    Pros:
    Water protection
    Cons:
    Kills your sound

    speaker baffles

    Written By jdmeaux, Lafayette, LA on Wednesday, June 13, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Although these are supposed to be for low profile speakers, I had nothing but interference due to their depth. There is nothing like hearing a squeaking window when you want to put the window open. The problem wasn't the window, but the baffle was rubbing on it.
    Pros:
    directs sounds into your vehicle
    Cons:
    too deep, easily torn

    Boom Mat 6x9

    Written By DK, Charleston, SC on Saturday, February 11, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Ended up removing them. I thought it was worth a try. They may work in other situations, but the rear deck is open to the sub box and you could hear the baffles fluttering so I removed them. The speakers were also a little difficult to install with the baffles in place.
    Pros:
    Nice idea
    Cons:
    Just didn't work for my application.

    None

    Negative impact on sound (muffled, blurred bass).

    Not a bad product so far

    Written By John, from PA on Monday, December 05, 2011
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I got these 6x9 Boom Mat to protect my door speakers in my '95 Dodge Ram for the most part. After reading the poor reviews on it I gave it a try anyway. I needed to replace my 6x9 door speakers anyway so this time I went with a 6-1/2 round speaker with the 6x9 speaker adaptor plates. The opening for the speaker is near the bottom of the adaptor and some excess material at the top. What I did was take a hole saw and cut a 1-1/2" hole there and made a port,then got my 3-1/2" deep,6x9 Boom Mat behind the speaker and adaptor. It is like I have a ported speaker box. My review is early since I don't have my door panels on yet but decided to gave it a 4 star rating for now.

    Boom Mat 6"x9" Speaker Baffles

    Written By James, Ansonia, CT on Friday, June 18, 2010
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I purchased these for my dodge ram 1500 07' pickup for the doors. I Have dynamat on the doors, but cant access the interior skin to Soundproof so i tried to install these. They fit perfect until i had to Roll the window down, then the gears on the power window touched The baffle. I even purchased the slimeline ones and had to make a Small slice into them for the gear to pass by......game over!!!!! Fit was Perfect again until i reinstalled the door panel and then cranked The stereo up......a full on rattle trap!!!! I guess for a rear deck maybe, But if you have to alter them then return them before you cut them Or you have a high dollar foam speaker ring!!!!!

    bass problems

    Written By Andy, Detroit MI on Thursday, November 06, 2008
     
    This will keep your speakers clean on the back side but they won't do much to improve the sound. I just bought a new set for the rear deck and thought I'd give these a try. They seal so good they prevent the driver from moving to produce sound. I cut the top ring off and just used for a gasket.
