That's my point. There's no scientific research included in that. Typically manufacturers who build products for the construction industry include results from 3rd party scientific studies that support their claims. The fact that Auralex does not should raise a red flag.

So, I just got an email back from Auralex and thought this was worth diseminating. Not that I'm trying to pick a fight or anything but I think it says alot about a company when they don't bother to actually validate their claims with test data. If anything it really makes you appreciate those that actually take the time to do it. I've blacked out the name of the individual involved but kept the email intact

Dusk,
Unfortunately we do not have third party testing data available on this product. Due to the expense of testing on a product we know works very well when implemented properly, we have not had it tested. I fully understand your hesitance in utilizing a product without test data, but I can assure you it has been used successfully time and time again.

So there you have it. in other words "Our product works because we say it does". Sure, I like a confident person like anyone else but you gotta love the fact that they don't believe in their product enough to test it.
There you have it. Shop wisely.
