That's basically what I did. However, I did find that my Advents took a lot more than recommended - about 2.5 lbs (40 oz.) for 1.6 cubic feet.

I went away from fiber glass because of the itching from handling the stuff. Fiberglass is the better material from an acoustical point of view.

I haven't tried it; but they are now selling an itch free fiberglass insulation. A roll of non-backed fiberglass is a lot cheaper than Acousti-Stuf.

In a tall tower, you definitely want the highest density of filler at the top and bottom; but you also need some in the middle. You might also consider stuffing fiberglass in the top and bottom and use Acousti-stuf in the middle where you will be working.
