Hi Guys!
Long time, no posty. Sorry about that, life has gotten in the way and nothing in the home theatre has changed - except for adding a "TCON: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" one sheet. However, I am helping my brother build his media room and wanted to get some feedback from some of you guys. As you all know (at least some of the older members) I used the Dri-Core subfloor system in my theatre and love every little bit of it. You can search the old posts for my thoughts and opinions on that product, so when it came time to help my brother build his room it was no questions as to what I was going to use on his concrete basement floor.
Here's the crux of my question: has anyone used or is using an accoustic padding on top of a subfloor instead of using carpet pad? If you are using it, what is the product called and do you really notice any difference in the overall sound quality of your room. I used carpet pad in my theatre and I'm just wondering if it would be worth the extra money for him to use it. I know I would have probably looked at something like that if it were available when I was installing my subfloor.
Anyway, thanks for listening to my ramblings. Let me know your thoughts and opinions on your time.
Cheers,
Andrew
