Soundproofing
I have an unfinished basement space, roughly 1000 sqft that I would like to convert to a TV and 2-channel listening room. The ceiling is open floor joists to to the first floor, any recommendations on soundproofing materials that I could use to rough finish between the joists. Floor/ceiling joists are 2x10's.
Thanks,
David

Folkfreak knows of what he speaks. His room is the best constructed I have ever been in, and is proof of the effectiveness of the ASC Wall Damp constrained layer damping product. I rapped on one of the walls in his room, and the sound produced was that of knocking on a thick piece of slate or a brick---a non-resonant click. I bought some pieces of Wall Damp (it is sold in 4" squares), and put them between the two shelves (I bought extras, to double the thickness of each top shelf to handle the weight of my heavy turntables) I have on top of each of my Solid Steel racks. A cheap and effective upgrade! |
Thanks @erik_squires -- amusing story is the installation instructions you receive from Art at ASC -- about 30 pages of closely spaced hand written notes and diagrams! Not for the faint of heart :-) The room does sound great however and if anyone is ever in the Portland, OR area you're welcome to take a listen |
h2 we have a lot of experience in this arena, we built a soundproof wall which was insanly effective 110db in room 85db outside of room and we bult the wall out of inexpensive materials. The room and total project was featured on Rev Runs Rennovation season 2 Secret Cinema here is a grainy non hd copy of the programhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqrxRo0vmf4 https://www.flickr.com/photos/58319891@N08/albums/72157650239108910 https://www.flickr.com/photos/58319891@N08/albums/72157650233548529 We are trained theater designers please let us know if we can guide you in any way.
