    Outer Door Skin Sound Proofing

    Just wondering if anyone can recommend whether or not to put silent coat [or similar] on the outer door skin, behind the speaker hole. Or - should you put closed foam behind the speaker door hole? I have put silent coat on the inner door skin and closed foam on the inside of the door card. Thanks
