    Does a riser need insulation?

    Jay, I can go measure my screen which is 100" diag FH, but why can't you move it up to 30" from the floor? Nic

    Does a riser need insulation?

    Your sightline of utilizing a 15" riser may be correct if you have the screen positioned rather low. My room is very close dimensionally to yours. 8 high, 21 long, almost 16 wide. My screen ( would have to look it up to be sure, or measure) is about 2.5 feet above the ground and am using a...

    Does a riser need insulation?

    The height likely plays a part in the effects. My best recommendation would be to call up Acoustic Science Corporation at www.tubetrap.com (you can find their number there) and talk to Erik Veach. These guys are all acoustical engineers and can explain the details of this situation much better...

    Ceiling Tiles or Drywall

    Your best acoustics will be obtained from a sheetrocked ceiling with resilient channels and wall dampening b/w the 2 layers of sheetrock. Ceiling Tiles are a poor value for the money IMHO.

    How do I soundproof my room?

    I agree with Ross wholeheartedly. I did about 2 weeks of research before I decided on the setup I was going to use. Check all the acoustic companies on the internet if you are serious about sound proofing your room. There are many companies with different opinions. The route I took was with...

    Does a riser need insulation?

    I would disagree with you guys on the need for insulation. The riser "acts" like a drum without any kind of dampening material. I used acoustic mat between my concrete floor and riser in addition to the cheapest R-11 insulation batts I could find. You will find this is the best way to go from...
