Searching throw the archives and web I found this article:
Panel Vibration Damping Experiments
Panel Vibration Damping Experiments
The damping layer for the green curve is 2 layers of 30# roofing felt that costs $0.17 per square foot (thanks to Dickason for mentioning this stuff). The constrained layer of roofing felt reduces the peak vibration by almost 20 dB, and the average by about 10 dB, relative to the blue curve without a damping layer. In most regions it is better than the hi-tech pricey vinyl. Needless to say, I chose the roofing felt sandwich for my enclosure construction.
Although he is talking about full range speakers here.
Are there any damping materials that can help with vibrations in the sub land?
