NVX XBAF68 6x8" Speaker Installation Kit - Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good and cheap

Good product, easy to use and durable. Very helpful in installing sound dampener. It's also cheap for a proper rubber roller.

value

I hear a roller is a must have for applying dampening, for the price its worth ordering.

NVX Sound Dampening Roller

Amazing roller gets the job done well. Seems like everytime i got into little spaces that i couldnt use the roller I cut my hands up this roller saves your hands and saves time. I did have the nut that holds the roller on come off while using it but its easy to put back on, I put it back on by hand. Worth the money for sure.

Why pay more?

This roller is more than capable of getting the job done. One trick you can do for tight curves is to use the handle of the roller to get the dampening material to conform to them.

All in all, a roller is roller. So, why pay more than this?

a must have when installing sound dampening products

Very nice and works very well. I would have never did as good as i did installing nvx sound dampening without this. This and the material is all you need it makes the job very simple. I would reccomend this to anyone who wants a good durable roller.

Works fine

Bought from Sonic along with Maxxlink VSD-TK 5 pc set. Basic shipping was fast. The roller worked very well. I have large hands and was able to use the roller without a problem. Only thing- check the tightness of the Nyloc nut and bolt that holds the roller on the handle. Mine popped apart while I was on the 5th and last section of damping material. A simple twist together plus an extra 1/8" turn and it did not come off again. I would buy again.

NVX Roller

I rubbed on about 70-80 sq ft of dampener with this roller, and I wasn't particularly nice to it and it did it's job and is still as new. Works well working dampener into the recesses of sheet metal, but that being said, it is just a medium duty tool. Be decent with it and it will last you a while. Not really any hidden features, it just rolls dampener.

It's a roller

There's not much to say. It held up through the job. Hopefully I won't have to use it again for awhile.

great roller tool

Really can't say anything bad about this product the good it made the job ease a plus another is small and easy to get in most small places note but not all places

Worked as advertised.

No complaints. Little roller worked just as advertised. The YouTube video you guys have on the installation was quite helpful too for a novice like me.

SO AMAZING YES

It's a freaking roller, what'd you expect? The nut hasn't come off yet so it's obviously not a 1/5.

awesome

Its a great tool and worked awesome... Well worth it A+++

Perfect tool for all sound dampening products

Great tool for all sound dampeners for half the price of dynamat's roller

Takes a beating

This thing can take a beating to say the least. I used it for about 5 consecutive hours to install my trunk kit and it only unscrewed once. I was using as much pressure as I could on certain parts to make sure the sound dampener would stick and this took it all. By the time I was done, the rubber roller seemed to have shrunk a little but I expected that. I wish I would have gotten the smaller roller as well for the tight spaces, but this was a great help to get all the air bubbles out. It's also really durable.

Rubber Roller

This is a heavy duty roller that is very durable. Ive used it for many applications and was always pleased with its performance. I would recommend this to anyone trying to apply sound dampening material.

does the job well

i used this roller to install a 40sq ft bulk kit, and when i was done the roller was still in great shape. The metal bracket that holds the roller to the handle could be a bit stronger, but it held up for the time that i needed it.

definitely worth the money, it makes the job alot easier than doing it by hand!

Rubber. Roller

Easy to use, only a couple of extra dollars with bundle purchase. A very primitive design, but it works well. I used the rounded wooden handle as much as the roller side.

Glad I used it or something like it.

I went ahead and punched this roller due to a special when I purchased a 36sq ft Roadkill Bulk Pack. I could have done the job without a roller, BUT, It would not have gone as easy or as successfully! Based on other reviews the first thing I did was tighten the end nut of the roller with a socket. The net is a nylon locking nut. I had no problems with it loosening. This product can and will bend if you apply a lot of pressure, to me this was a non issue. I think if you are just going to do a few vehicles than you can't beat the value of this roller. If I was a professional installer I might would want something more.
I do feel like I was able to more successfully apply the sound deadener with the roller. I was able to roll out air bubbles and achieve good solid adhesion.
So far I have only used it on my four doors. I do recommend some sort of roller for installing sound deadening.

Greate value

I would defiantly recommend this to anyone applying deadner. It worked perfect for me. Made my install go flawlessly

NVX rocks!!!

Sweet little tool! Works well with NVX Sound Dampener or any other brand! Made my install simple, durable and great looking! Thanks NVX!

Not very good

The roller came apart in less than a quarter of the installation of a NVX kit. Was not expensive but would not recommend.

Nice and durable

When you first get it, it looks amazing. It's a very nice wood and rubber roller. it's tough and it handled sitting in my pickup for a few hours in 100+ degree heat. It didn't bend and I applied a lot of pressure.

i got this to use on my back deck and my trunk and my plate. worked great

Does it's job for cheap

Does what it's made to do for cheap without breaking after my first installation. Nothing special though.

HEAVY DUTY ROLLER!

This product is great when it comes to installing sound dampening works great and helps u alot installing your sound dampening it is heavy duty and for me i think its a great product and NVX is making some great products check them out!

Works well

I used my hands for most of the installation on the doors. for the trunk this tool was very useful. very good quality.

By Luis on May 8, 2015 Verified purchase

Excellant Value

Good roller for do it yourselfers. Great price for quality of the tool

its ok

Its good for flat surfaces, but you could actually get away with using the edge of a tool or carpet knife. The roller doesn't get deep into cracks and creveses.

Rubber Roller

Easy to lay the sound deadening with this roller. I had the lock nut come off once but easy fix. The handle on it works great to get into some of the odder shapes on the floor.
Would not attempt to install sound deadening wihtout this, or something like it.

works great

initially i thought it looked cheap, i tighten the bolt up before i used cause it wasnt quite to the locking part of the nut. it lasted through my whole install of a 40 ft bulk kit. i did the whole interior of my s10 extended cab. i will be writing a review of that also, nvx hasnt let me down yet, thanks sonic!

good roller

it worked well.i just tightened the bolt and had no issuess again .im planning onbuy another one..

Great roller!

Really helped adhering the sound deadener. Would buy again, cheap and a time saver.

Perfect for what it is

I bought the roller with the nvx bulk pack . Really helped with the entire application and does as advertised. No cons. This is surely a pro tool so a pro review . Simply works .

GREAT ROLLER!

THE ROLLER MAKES IT MUCH EASIER TO APPLY THE DYNAMAT, BY ELLIMINATING THE AIR BUBBLES.

Awesome set of tools

These trim tools came in handy and were a big help. Great value for these tools.

By Fireguy on February 2, 2020 Verified purchase

definitely a good tool! don't apply sound deadener without it!

I just installed 40 Sq ft of NVX sound deadener in my truck and I would definitely recommend this tool to save you a lot of work and headaches lol

Very slick tools to efficiently slip wires/cables into car interiors

This kit was recommended by the Sonic Professional Installer staff to slip a wiring harness from the trunk beneath leather seat corner, beneath door entry panels into plastic wire channel, and on through the dash of a 96 Lincoln Town Car. I was dubious that it would be needed but found it protected the continuity of wire insulation, made the job easier, and was indispensable for removing the plastic fasteners holding the knee protection panels beneath the dash. Most home workshops do not have tools equal to the job that can prevent gouges and mars in these expensive interior panels. They are sturdy and well worth the price.

Don't go without it

This really helps with overall sound quality, especially mid-bass in my experience. NVX offers excellent quality at better prices are than other popular sound deadening brands.

Junk

The roller fell apart during use and had to be reassembled. The sides stick out to far so you can't roll close to an edge. Spend the $ to buy the Dynamat roller.

NVX SDBSK2 Premium Stealth Black

Thick and heavy. I was suprised with the actual quality. For the price they’re great quality

NVX SDBSK2 Premium Stealth Black

For the price, I wish it came with a bit more of the material compared to other packages, but it definitely does what it's supposed to and will make a noticeable difference if you knock on the door/panel where it was placed vs where it wasn't.

Top shelf roller

Came free when I purchased speakers and nvx deadener kit. Top of line rubber and good bearings rolls smooth has lasted past three jobs.

By Frank on October 2, 2015 Verified purchase

Cheap but you get what you pay for I guess.

The rubber on my roller would start rubbing against the metal edges of the roller and would stop and get stuck plus I made an annoying squeaking sound, plus the bolts that hold it in place stick out too far and don't let you get edges good.

NVX SDRLR1 Sound Dampening Rubber Roller

Perfect device for effectively rolling dampening material onto surfaces. I would recommend this or some similar product, you're not going to get the material on properly with just your hands.

The handle is comfortable and the tool is of a quality build. My only complaint is that the hole in the roller is a little off center but I never noticed while I was using it. A must have for the sound deadening mats.

The roller made it much easier for the product to stick to the surface I was working with. I would recommend purchasing this product because it would save you time and effort in getting the job done. I would also recommend this dealer to anyone looking to purchase this product good value for your money.

Cheap

I would recommend NVX products but not this one. Wasn't centered correctly and didn't roll right.

great tool

this tool is a lot stronger than I had expected. thought I'd have to baby it judging from the pictures but after using it I'm expecting it to last a lifetime. the corners can cut into the aluminum foil on your sound deadening so it'd probably be a safe bet to grind those down but I can't complain when the tool came free with another purchase

I got this roller with the NVX sound dampner and the roller works good but dose bind up time from time and the wheels will run on the metal framing. Still works and good for the price. Just wish it being a simple design it worked a bit better. But still would recommend for the price point.

It works a ton better than using fingers or manual labor... It just makes the job so much easier, and its basically pocket change.. Nothing to think about, if you are doing sound deader in your car you NEED this.. dont be cheap...

Good for the cost.

Not a bad roller for the cost. I used to have a wooden roller from dynamite that was definitely better construction than this, however it’s more than double the cost. Not worth it in my opinion. This does the job fine.

Needs a better design!

This roller broke before I completed my install of 20sq ft of NVX deadener, the roller wheel was touching the metal on the left and right sides, I trimmed some of it off with a razer to finish my doors.

By Joe on January 5, 2016 Verified purchase

Fair enough for what you pay, gets the job done.

These do exactly what you need them to do, although the pointed skinny one bends very easily. I would personally just recommend going with a screw if you are ONLY trying to get your stereo trim out, since that is what I did. Cannot speak for any other uses of this, but they do what you need.

A must have for any audio/video installation. Weekend warrior or professional shop!!

These items are great for the removal of kick panels, door panels etc. I've gone through 5 different sets of these over the past 4 yrs and will continue to use the same brand. I would recommend not to leave them in direct sunlight or in 90° or greater heat prior to use. This might never come into play depending on where you live, but in Florida it's always an issue, even in our air-conditioned garage. The versatility of the different style tools makes for easier removal depending on where and what panel needs to be removed. I would recommend these tools for any installer, wether weekend warrior or professional shop.
