Well, i did the same thing that the guy did and nothing happend, well i mean... I didin't make my room soundproof but now when i fall there is no echo at all
@@NaithOne Well those panels can prevent sound from bouncing off drywall where they are placed so it can slightly reduce echo. However, he is complaining about sounds coming from other rooms, which is a complete different topic. Sound is like wind. If you have a room you keep at 23 degree Celcius, if you leave just a slight opening on the door and it's 0 outside, the whole room will feel the fresh air coming in and the temperature will drop. So when soundproofing a room, you have to prevent air from getting in AND you have to mitigate wall / ceiling vibration coming from the soundwave generated from the other rooms. 20$ of panel won't cut it even remotely.
@@NaithOne Well first, you have to define what you want to achieve. There is a big thing in the soundproofing world which I call: Managing customer expectation. There is a big gap between dampening the sound and soundproofing a room. Some customers who will not want to spend too much will go for insulation into the wall (rockwool or fiberglass wool made for soundproofing) and once everything is done and installed they will be like '' I still hear what is going on in the next room, this is garbage''. The insulation is doing its job just fine, it's just that the job it is sold to do is not what the customer think it will do. To answer your question simply, you need to add mass to walls and ceiling, lots of mass while patching all air gap between rooms. If you are in Canada, you have access to Sonopan, which are sound dampening sheet of 4 feet x 8 which can be installed on top of a finished drywall. You cover the room with that, then you add a another drywall on top, preferably 5/8 drywall, because it has more mass. This will give you a quite impressive dampening of the sound that comes from outside. You can expect not being able to understand a normal conversation happening in the next room, although you still hear mumbles. That's what I mean by managing customer expectation. We have to give them examples they can work with. Now if you want to prevent someone listen to super heavy bass rap music blasted at max sound from a 1800W system, then it's a much bigger project. You need to basically open up the wall, and redo the whole thing. Now if take the example above with Sonopan and Drywall, you have to install both layers on all surface than tape and mud the drywall, repaint, etc. It is not necessarily an expensive job in term of material, (25 CAD per Sonopan sheet, which covers 4x8, than about the same for 4x8 drywall, then screws and staples, tape and mud). But it is a time consuming job, so if you don't do it yourself, you can expect paying over 1000 for the whole deal easily
“I will do anything it takes” “I will spend only $20” Man’s got mixed messages Edit:Thx so much I can’t believe how many likes this comment got! I’ve never got this many before!
so basically when they arrived his roomates had graduated, moved out, retired, and waiting for him to join at the assisted living home where the noise continues 😂🎉❤
Do people really not know that those panels are sound dampening, not sound insulating? This means they prevent echos. Sound will still easily pass through the wall and right through them
In case anyone’s wondering for an actual budget solution: Moving blankets from harbor freight, hung an inch or two off each wall. It’ll shrink your room and won’t be perfect, but it will do a heck of a job without having to rebuild your house
@@jimjones9693yeah I told my neighbor you said he could just wear earplugs when I use the table saw at 2 am, he said “great idea! Jim Jones is a genius!”
It does not do any soundproofing!!!! Do not buy it. When everyone else in the world tells you it isnt soundproofing, don't jump to listen to the jackass on youtube shorts.
these panels just reduce the amount of reverb inside the room and they dont reduce the amplitude of the sound coming in you’d need mattresses or something thicccc
@@gamers-unite2023sit down child and listen to this: It’s a certain type of website where a certain kind of people (usually women) sell their…. Pictures of them looking uhhh…. How do i say this? Sexy? And then creepy men buy them for their own enjoyment.
Depends on the person, Some ppl don’t like earplugs while sleeping. Eventually it’s irritating or you randomly loose one, soundproofing the room is more ideal.
