Resiliant Channel (1 Viewer)

[JohnBrianW.]

I know its been beat to death already but just some clarification. Is resiliant channel used for acoustics or sound proofing?

Because if its not improving the acoustics in my room, I won't bother with it, even though i bought about 60ft or so at a hardware store close out for about $20. I just keep thinking of complications that arise from using it, ie the putty issue concerns me and the cracking.

On the other hand if its purpose is to improve acoustics...its going up!

Both. Here is a book that has extensive information on the acoustical properties of R/C.

Also, here is a link that has additional R/C information about use, and construction.
