I thought of putting this in an acoustical engineering forum, but I want REAL results rather than theory.
Has anyone insulated a dyno-room for sound reduction (or any room - rock band jam session room in basement etc.)?
What material did you use and how thick?
What drop in sound pressure did you measure?(db a-weighted prefered)
The neighbors hate me and I'm trying hard to keep my dyno usable.
I am sound proofing as I type this, and yes I have lots O' books and info, but I figure with all the brainpower and experience on this forum, someone has actually done this already and may have good advice on DO's and DON'Ts. and what to expect.
Thanks in advance!

P.S. I'm currently using 3/4 inch Cellotex foam insulation and 1/2" plywood on a 2/4 framed enclosure. The building itself is additionally insulated with 3/4 inch Cellotex.
