BXI Thickened Sound Absorbing Panels - 12 Pack 12 X 12 X 0.5 Inches Dense Acoustic Panels, Echo Noise Reducing Sound Panels, Tackable Studio Panels for Wall and Ceiling Acoustic Treatment

Great product!! No issues

This product is not a miracle worker. But I’ve suffered with very noisy downstairs neighbors for years now and this is the best relief I’ve gotten yet. My new construction 2nd floor condo was built with barely any useable soundproof in my foyer/staircase. I hear almost everything my downstairs neighbors say when they’re in the room next to my foyer. Not having peace and quiet can truly drive a person insane. Years ago I hired professional soundproofers who basically told me that other than tearing the building down and starting new, there wasn’t much they could do. After a particular noisy few weeks, I decided to try some of these panels. While I’m currently listening to the vibrations of the footsteps of the child downstairs running around, I don’t hear the screams and shrieking quite as loudly as I used to. I just purchased my 5th order of panels because I keep wanting to do more. They look good/subtle, and help dampen the voices. It takes a lot of panels to make a marginal difference but I’ll take it! And I’m happier than I was before I bought these. If you have an area where you can mostly paper with these tiles, give it a try. I’m glad I did.

Used these behind my ge refrigerator that was a very loud rumble just from the machine working properly. Works well, I mounted using double sided mounting tape. Easily cut as well with a utility knife, I had to cut a slot out for an outlet.

I attached these to a noisy washing machine and it reduced the noise dramatically

They only measure 11" 5/32, which really throughs things off when trying to glue them to a 4x8 sheet of Styrofoam insulation or plywood. why say your 12x12 and then shave off 3/16? just make it 12x12. This comes out to exactly 30cm metric, then they just round up for advertising.

I am attempting to make a bedroom into a sanctuary as I live next door to a place with regular loud drums and music regularly. I bought 2 dozen panels and spaced them out around the walls and door so that when sound comes in, it is diffused off of these surfaces. As many people point out, these panels don't block outside noise completely but they do dull it to a level that makes it tolerable for me; I also bought some noise cancelling curtains and put down some thick rugs. With this combination, I am happy with the results; they passed the " clap test" even without the other adjustments which means they have effectively deadened the room sound. At a certain point I may buy more to help disperse sound in other rooms as well. The panels are light and easy to hang, and the neutral color does not distract. TL:DR- these are a great purchase but don't expect these alone to do the job.

I don't use these as "sound absorbers"... that is silly, and the science does not work. You need MASS AND SIZE to stop audio from leaking to another room. These and the egg crates are for naive Twitch/YouTubers who haven't realized they don't work yet. I use these as a backboard for my dartboard. I just arranged them in a 3x4 grid, hung it on the wall, and mounted my board directly onto the panels. It has worked PERFECTLY. Half an inch of the felp is all you need to stop a dart, unless you throw very hard.

Not much help for soundproofing.
