RE: Building a room for my Magnepans

Posted by TwoTurntables on February 9, 2015 at 05:43:42:

I apologize perhaps I didn't explain my original post very well.

My room dimensions reflect that I did not use the 3 2 1 ratio. I also didn't think it was the way to go. I used the Cardas golden ratio for my room dimensions.

Picture guy. In order to make the walls more rigid I could do one of two things.. Do 16" on center studs with two layers of drywall, or 8" on center with a single layer of drywall....so I went with double studs and single layer of drywall. The rest of my house has 16" on center studs :)


I am using the Roxull sound proofing BEHIND the drywall to keep the sound inside the room. I am not putting the Roxull on the surface of the drywall inside the room.

So do some of you not agree that I should use the roxull in my walls and ceiling behind the drywall?? I was understanding that is the way to go for several reasons. Please explain if you disagree......

Also, Pictureguy, I am not understanding what you mean. I built one long wall 1" off square. So as you measure towards the back of my room it will move out very slightly. Showing an inch wider in the back then in the front(behind my speakers)
