Sound proofing panels and other equipment - What is the best out there right now
@atdavid I just sent you a PM about the ASC isodamp system but I see you can access the file here -- it'll give you or your contractor a good sense of what is involved https://www.acousticsciences.com/sites/walldamp/files/Product-PDFs/IsoWall-Install-Guide_0.pdf |
The way you are describing it sounds sufficient for this installation. It does not need to be perfect, just good enough, and more than good enough to still enjoy the experience. folkfreak1,332 posts11-12-2019 2:04amRegarding suppression -- my system delivered close to 100% to the next door neighbors (this was in a row house constructed with an air gap between the two houses) but was still audible to the corridor adjacent and to the room above -- primarily bass leakage, and certainly not at a "disturbing" level but the other resident knew music was playing and could identify the track if it was one they were familiar with. Basically think of it as taking 90+ dB in room down to normal what you would consider acceptable leakage for a person with a TV in the room next to you playing faintly. I guess this goes some way to saying that in a residential setup with adjacent rooms its very hard to get to 100%, which is why my new build is a garden room 60' away! |
This is just a very small part of what goes into soundproofing a room. zardozmike60 posts11-15-2019 10:14amYou can make your own for a fraction of the cost you will pay for commercial products. Owens corning 703 is all you need. |
