Yup - that's what we used in Left Bank. We found that one isn't really enough but OK in some situations but loud gtrs and drums etc will need two.

So STC's can simply be added, meaning two of these sliding doors has a combined theoretical STC of 66.
Check this link. http://www.soundproofing.org/infopages/soundwalls.html
It has a chart that list a double wall (I assume synonymous w/ room within a room) as having an STC of 59. It lists a single wall of similar construction at 39.

Also...
I've seen higher STC's in sliding glass doors... also, cheaper alternatives to resilient channels etc, thru a company called www.quietsolutions.com ... I'm currently in the process of building my own studio, and supposedly this stuff is easy to use and the results are just as good if not better than anything else you could use. HAvn't decided exactly which way im going to go... But at the very least, this stuff is an option.
