Anyone tried using Dynamat on thier 600T? I picked up some foam and plan on doing dynamat and foam on the panels to help with some of the noise. The issue isnt really the fans but more of a resonance inside the case. I noticed the window panel likes to make some popping noises.. not sure if using dynamat around it on the inside will help or not but I think I might give it a try.
 
Well dynamat is a vibration damper mostly it isn't the best muffler but it works pretty well.

Yeah, this case is to open to use any kind of foam to help the noise. I was more concerned with harmonics since the panels are kinda thin and don't have much weight to them. I think dynamat would work great on this. I may throw some foam padding on top just to make it look better. I will give it a shot this weekend and see hwo it goes. Maybe it will help that creeking or popping noise the windowed panel makes from time to time.
 
What you should try is asphault sheets that are for car audio, It will add weight.
 
dynamat will add considerable weight also. Used to have 3 layers in my trunk at one point, lost 2mpg :p
 
I picked up some stuff called Peel and Seal from Lowes. I found that a lot of the car audio guys on a budget will use this stuff. Its a lot like the orginal dynamat. I will just double layer it. It is VERY cheap compared to real dynamat. I picked up a 6" X 25' roll for 15$ at Lowes. I can probably do a few cases with this much. The car audio shops wanted about 40$ for what I would use to do one case.

Its good that you bring that up I had forgoten about it.
 
Just a follow up.. I added the Peel and Seal to my case as well as some foam that Silverstone makes to put on the side panels. Initially I got a lot of popping when I first installed it but since then I havent noticed any popping. Not sure if this fixed it or just managed to get the panel on in a way that it doesn't pop. It does seem to help with harmonics being fed through the case. Can't say its 100% worth it but it was a cheap mod and the roll of Peel and Seal can do like 4 or 5 cases. I did my nieghbors Antec 300 and we noticed right off his fan's are sending vibes through the case and it ended up being more quiet.
