without the ceiling treatments for the dips in 70-100hz, this looks pretty decent.

Monitor Mounting options

pretty sure many live shows use trusses and/or poles to mount speakers, and large events are surprisingly very sophisticated in their response for listening - including things liked beamed subwoofer arrays etc. so it's definitely an option, and might even have a really cool look.

Monitor Mounting options

decoupling the stands is the same as decoupling the speakers from the stands. ceiling mounts may not need to be complex. look into some ceiling isolation braces to mount the speaker bracket onto. e.g. some isolation mounts for equipment etc - adding a small increase in depth from the ceiling but suf...

Monitor Mounting options

you could use the heavy stands, then decouple the speakers from the stand, or decouple the stange + speaker from the floor. ultimately the speaker decoupled will depend on the weight of each unit, or the ability to "press" down on the speaker to get the right compression. i suggest all ear...

Speakerbox - flush mount

that should be fine. i'd put a .75cm rubber mat on the bottom and on either side to keep it from moving. if the speaker has feet, maybe creating recesses for the feet in the bottom will work.

excellent! yeah, as things get quieter and quieter suddenly you find other places which transfer the sound or make noises - framing, shared concrete pads, ducts, electrical wiring strung tightly between isolated walls, conduits, hvac noises, etc. but on the plus side, once you're below 50-55db, your...

the speaker and box - my recommendation is a slightly snug fit to prevent movement.

Speakerbox - flush mount

the clearance if you're going to decouple in the box will depend on the decoupler thickness etc. if the box will be decoupled, then make the box snug w/ some light rubber to keep it firmly in place yet still accessible. the hangers? use some plywood or OSB, with insulation, leave about 1-2" air...

Speakerbox - flush mount

i'd just double up the 3/4" MDF, one box inside another and yes glue it and brads etc. use sorbthane or equiv to decouple the speaker from the box, or decouple the box from the soffit assembly. one option to ensure proper loading is to use adjustable ties to set the pressure on the pads so you ...

rear ported speakers are a challenge as part of the tuning of the port is part of the overall manufacturer speaker response. and plugging the port can significantly changes things including the response, power levels, heat trapping, etc. one common option is to remove the electronics from the speake...

I want sound isolation and light PART II

using exterior grade products which have moisture protection is advisable for the lowest parts of the framing and panels. so check for treated products which are allowed (some countries have different treatment chemicals allowed). then on the exterior, i would try to mimic the rock surface where pos...

you could use the light stuff. i'd pack it a bit to ensure even pressure on the panel to damp it.
