    I'm getting a pair of Infinity Kappa 63.7i for the rear and 60.7cs for the front. I did a search on speaker replacement and see some of you put dynamat around the speakers to lower the rattle. For those of you that did not get the dynamat, you notice any rattling?

    The dynamat isn't that expensive, but I want to know that they actually make a difference. Welcome any comments or suggestions. TIA!

    ABSOLUTELY!!!! without it you will lose so much sound from the back of the speaker especially midrange. I invetsed in 3k worth of audio upgrades- it was first put in without dynamat and it sounded horrible- afterwards was awesome- no brainer- as the prius doors are so light for keeping the weight down- no soundproofing. Just do it! And congrats.
