TroyStudioThickened Acoustic Panels, 16 x 12 x 0.5 Inches Pack of 6 Felt Wall Decor Tiles Sound Absorbing Board, Noise Reverb Echo Dampening Soundproof Padding for Door Music Recording Home Studio

I used these to deaden the sound of my hammering in my jewelry studio. My studio was converted from a plant are on an apartment patio and had open slatted top counters, which I covered with a thin plywood. I wanted to make sure my hobby wouldn’t disturb the neighbors, so I cut these boards to size to fit under the plywood. They work perfectly and absorb the thuds from my hammer! Not their intended purpose, but they are good quality and worked well for my needs.

My indoor plant lite has a timer that has gotten old and noisy. I made a hood from this felt. It did the trick.My daughters also used pieces as underlays for their sewing, quilting machines. They report the felt quiets those machines as well

On the one hand, these work well for what they’re intended to do. By ear, they reduce room reverb as least as well as acoustic wedge foam. I’d be harder on the reviews complaining about soundproofing effectiveness (this is probably not the best tool for that), if the description didn’t include the word “soundproofing”. They’re pretty rigid and command strips stick well directly, both of which make them less work to hang than foam. They’re about three times heavier, with no noticeable odor. White acoustic foam is almost impossible to find, and the one source I’ve seen wasn’t fire retardant. This is at least white-ish, and fire rated.On the other hand, they’re not 16x12. They’re very precisely cut to 15 3/4” x 11 7/8”. This doesn’t really affect coverage, but does make placing them by measurement harder and the error can visibly add up. The ‘white’ color is a very light grey with a blue cast, I’m okay with them on a white ceiling but wouldn’t put them on a white wall. Picture attached showing both measurement and comparison with white (under ~2800K light). Still giving them four stars because they work well (I ordered more after trying them out), but I wish the description was more accurate especially the measurement.

I have a medium size basement recording studio and I bought a 6 pack of these to put on the ceiling above the drum kit to hopefully create some sound absorption. I used heavy duty Scotch adhesive fasteners, 4 on each panel, and arranged them on the ceiling. Within a day or 2 all of them had fallen off the ceiling. I think I might try using a fabric glue on my next attempt. They honestly didn't seem to make a huge difference upstairs, decibel-wise. These aren't cheap either. I think maybe if you splurge on 30-40 of these panels it might make a difference but that will cost a few hundred dollars and I'm sure there are better options out there. I've seen reviews where people said they weren't really white, but these that I got were pretty white. Overall, I don't think they're worth almost $100 for 6, but I have no idea what goes into making them.

Nice dense aound-deadening pads, easy to cut and fit, good damping quality and decent price.

My wife use them in her office because the guy next-door is incredibly loud all the time! She grabbed about 12 of these put them all around her cubicle and now life is bliss!

I am a long time (50yrs) software engineer and the server on my desk was "noisy". Nothing wrong with it but simply machine noise. I bought these and put one between me and the server. WOW! What a difference! When I find time I'm going to build an enclosure and line it with these...probably silent at that point. Definitely recommend.

i like, used in my house on my walls as a sound barrier
