Can you elaborate a bit on it? I saw that car audio 101 stickied thread but I didn't see anything about capacitors.

I haven't heard of hush mat, and I thought both rattling and noise were related. Isn't the reason you get noise in cars due to the weight of the parts shaking at a different frequency than the sub itself? I thought the way dynamat worked was by just counteracting this by adding weight to them and changing that frequency. So then wouldn't different brands accomplish the same since it's just about the mass and not the material?
