Bodiezaffa gets his music room
6 yrs. That's how long I've listened to music in my unfinished basement.
But no more. Reno's have begun on my dedicated listening room.
Room size will be 21ft long x 13ft wide by 7'8" high. Unfortunately, supporting beams and floor configuration didn't allow for wider/higher room - I wanted 15ft - without making hallways too narrow....and 8 ft ceilings are 8ft ceilings.
To decouple the room from the rest of the house and add treatment, I chose a company called Kinetics Noise Control. Using:
WALLS:
130 each isomax clips
137 linear feet of wallmat 3 for top and bottom plates
100 each KAI-W bushings for wallmat 3 lag
CEILING:
76 each isomax clips
2 Injoist Duct Silencers.
To maintain integrity of isolation at an affordable price, no pot lights in ceiling, only wall sconces and floor lighting.
I've posted a few pics of basement before demolition and after some build.
More to come.
Would appreciate any feedback/suggestions going forward.
