Excellent build and great you share a lot of photo's

If I use 125 mm round duct for my ventilation and go to 16 x 16 cm square inside the baffle box, which is roughly twice the size, my attenuator/silencer/baffle box :D will be 93 x 40,5 x 25 cm. This is with 3 baffles inside the box. I can't go bigger due to restricted space between the joists. Will ...

I'll try my luck with the 4 silencer boxes and if it's too noisy, I can add a plenum later on. It'll be most of all a practise room and the recording I'm doing (if any) is in...

Do you have a picture of such a plenum? I think I understand what you mean but want to be sure.

Thanks Gullfo, sounds reasonable to me. It's just that Eric Desart was quite the authority on sound isolation. The sound passing straight through might be reduced by the narrow exhaust, he's talking about. Maybe I'll find time to build 2 micro silencer boxes from scrap wood and measure the differenc...

Since my external leaf is almost finished (double sheets of 18 mm osb all walls and ceiling) and nearly ready for th...
