Recommendations on Sound Deadening ?

I am getting ready to do a stereo install and wanted to know what some of the gurus are recommending for sound deadening. I have seen comments on Dynamat, BQuiet, SecondSkin, etc. Thoughts on the best and the best bang for the buck? Thanks

Google it , its cheap and you can get it from Lowes/Home depot .
Ive use it in my trunk to knock down the drone and it works pretty good .
IIRC it ran about $15 for a 6" x 25' Roll

I used Dynamat Extreme on my 2 front doors. It works really well, no more anoying rattles. It's not cheap ($50 for 12sqft, just enough to do 2 doors), but you will notice the difference.
If you are also looking for how to install it, I made a how-to for that a while back.
BTW I recommed you get some decent speakers too while you're doing it. The stock one's are pretty lame.

Thanks guys...I bought 50 sq ft of edead80 and am doing a 'little upgrade' - 5 channel amp, 6.5 components, and a 12" sub

...Memphis Audio all the way around!
