Default Anyone with a 2012 have this problem????

I traded my 2010 for a 2012 and never had a problem with my stock speakers in the sound-bar. in my 2012 they vibrate horribly I have to turn the bass way down to tolerate it. Any of you have this problem? If so how did you fix it?

I don't have a 2012 nor do I have this issue, but I've seen & heard that people use a "spray insulation" sorta deal....like expanding foam. I think it was called polly-fil or something like that. Spray it in the surrounding areas, it will expand and most likely will take care of the rattles.

IDK about the specific rattles, but the poly fill is pillow stuffing.

I don't have the issue. But I'd you wan to do the poly fill, first check for loose hardware. You need to find the source before covering it up

DUH! I knew it sounded familiar and I said to myself, I don't think the spray insulation/expanding foam is called poly-fil, hahahaha

Poly-fil the enclosures apparently helps the sound quality. I plan on trying it soon.

Same here, as you can get it at a craft store for very cheap... Even tho I don't have any rattles, it will hopefully improve the sound and avoid any rattles up front before they surface.
