derrickdj1 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 The product looks interesting. I just stuffed some insulation above and below the speaker. Let us know how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
normoo Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 If i get my hands on a sound meter, I will do a test with\without the product. It's going to cost over $100.00 a side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACV92 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I was looking at that kit when I installed mine in our small HT setup in the basement. Unfortunately, it didn't go quite as I had planned. Both holes I cut in the walls where I wanted them were blocked, one with a horizontal board, the other with ducting. So, I used some 3/4" MDF and built partial boxes for them, with the rear open considering they are supposed to be more of a 'free air' design. There is insulation behind them so it kind of encloses them. I cut the drywall to 1/2 way in on the studs, so I could put a couple of screws in the drywall where I had cut it. I measured the holes, depth needed, built the boxes, secured them to wall/framing utilizing some L brackets and some Liquid Nails. Then, for moisture protection, one is on an exterior wall, I used Kilz to paint the inside of the enclosures. I added a small amount of polyfil in the enclosure to help with any resonances. Next I used tape, mud, and my texture gun to finish the boxes before I painted the room. Anyway, I've attached show pics in the next couple posts. I call it a 'reverse french' installation. So, if you don't have obstructions, you could use 1/2" MDF to build a panel that spans to the studs with an enclosure attached behind it that fits between the studs. 1/2" considering the usual thickness of drywall. I was going to do this originally but had to go the other way. The other reason I did this was due to the fact that I didn't want any vibrations from the drywall and a better resonance from the MDF. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
