I have not done any real test's yet. I have not run my cables yet. However, I have put the bedroom stereo in the live room, its about 60 watts/side with a sub. I floored it out with some AC/DC, stepped outside and shut the 2 doors. If you listen real close you can just bear ly hear it and no bass!.
I had the wife go inside and whack a Pearl Piccolo snare while I stood outside. Again I could hardly hear it.So I am figuring I was successful at good isolation and I still have acoustic panels for the wall, about 20 of them 2'x4'x4" and a couple throw rugs for the floor. I am also going to double seal the 2 entrance doors with silicon weather stripping.
The sound of the stereo in the live area, so far its a little bass heavy. Not so bad figuring bare sheet-rock walls and bare wood floors. I have some Lenrd bass traps in the corners(temporary until I can afford some Real Traps)When the panela go up I think it will sound allot better.
The control room has acoustic foam on the walls and ceiling with Lenrds in the corners. The floor is bare wood.I was surprised at how much better the stereo sounded in there. Crystal clear!I listoned to some familiar music and it sounded great.
I purchased Event SP8's for my new near-fields but with my luck one of them came faulty and has to return
.
The glass people will be installing the CR window glass on Friday. 1/2" and 3/8". The door to the CR also has double glass. So far I only have one installed but have provision for a second one later on if I need it, I'm sure I will.
Thanks for the help so far,
Clifford.
