I browsed the Green Glue site a little, and they claim this is the greatest stuff since sliced bread. They have a review quote on their site, attributed to Rives, saying this stuff is so great they're going to use it on every future installation. So, do you still think that?
We're going to be tiling the (currently wood) floor in our kitchen, above the soon-to-be listening / theater room. My brother in law is doing the tile. He has to put cement board on the subfloor before laying tile. I had asked him to put an acoustic underlayment in between. Would I be better off just using Green Glue between the subfloor and cement board?

Every installation? I don't know about that, but it is the most cost effective component (note the word component--it's not an end all do all item) for sound isolation. When sound isolation is important I would say that Green Glue is spec'd in our designs almost all the time. For tile you use "Blue Glue". We have not had an installation yet that used Blue Glue, but given our results with Green Glue, I would likely use it.

Are you referring to the carpet adhesive fom 3M?

I am doing a Chris Huston/Rives build right now. I have used 28 cases of Green Glue. This stuff is nasty... .but it's great. I did a couple of test pieces and it does what it says. My contractors have used it anywhere 2 surfaces meet. I probably did overkill using RC AND multiple sandwiches of drywall/Green Glue, but that's me. I tell all my friends now that are building HT or Studios now to use the stuff.
