It's a good option but too messy and fiberglass insulation is easyer to install.

thank a lot for the info i'll go check these web sites

No progress at the moment I'm still planning the House to put the Home Theater in :)

Thanks a lot for the info Bobofbone. Can I use green glue to fix the drywall to the plywood on the walls and ceiling?

Thanks a lot for the info. I'm on a budget so I would like a simple solution with a low cost. I know I can't reach a STC-80 solution with no budget but I look for the best cost/result ratio

Hi, I'm planning my theater and I would like some advices on insulation. I have read a lot on the subject but there are so many options. My main concern is sound and vibrations transmited to the ceiling since the theater will be in the basement I don't really care about sound in the basement...

Yes but if the speaker is centered between the 2 rows the second row will have the speakers in front of them instead of the 90-110 degrees recommended...I want each row to have the same experience. didn't buy anything yet I'm not ready to purchase..I'm planing right now my setup will be...
