An acoustic fiber silencer for a motor vehicle includes a first sound absorbing layer and a second sound insulating layer. The layers are formed of lightweight fibrous material, and the sound insulating layer is quilted. The acoustic fiber silencer includes a frame to which the sound absorbing and sound insulating layers are secured. The frame provides structural support and shape to the sound absorbing and sound insulating layers. The acoustic fiber silencer is lightweight while maintaining excellent noise attenuation properties.

Acoustic fiber silencer

A hybrid acoustic silencer for a motor vehicle includes an insertion loss layer tuned for good insertion loss properties at specific frequencies and an absorption layer tuned for good absorption properties at specific frequencies. The insertion loss layer is configured to be adjacent to a sound radiating surface of the motor vehicle and the absorption layer is configured to face outward from the sound radiating surface of the motor vehicle.
