Got it...I guess I need a separate ground cable for each outlet. Ouch!!!...that sounds like a lot of work. Thanks John, Luis.

Ok I see what you mean....but ideally if nothing comes out loose and all connections have good contacts it shouldn't hum right?

Michael, This is what I don't get....I would think that even if you connect the grounds from outlet to outlet in series then connect to the main ground...such as option 2 in my drawings...all outlets will have a common ground anyways...I would think the only difference will be the cable...

Here is the other drawing Option 1

Hi all, I need some help in trying to figure out how to setup the outlets for the control room- vocal booth - and studio. I will be using 1 circuit separated from the lights-and AC/Heat circuits. I know I need to setup the outlets using the star earthing technique....but now this part is what...

Hi Steve, The problem I have is that the first layer of wood that goes on the floor joists is not a 4x8 sheet of plywood but a lot of 8"x8' long slats of wood and they are spaced about 1/2" apart leaving a gap between them. On top of that layer I have hardwood floor. Looking at it from the...

I recently found a place in Queens NY. I can't remember the name exactly but they are a major distributor for commercial insulation. They carry pretty much all kinds of insulation, 703 knauff, Rockwool....you name it....oh...and they will sell you even if you don't buy a lot of it. Try doing...

I payed about....$1.00 a sqft...but I got that price because I bought 60 bags of 24sqf each. They didn't charge delivery but they did charge me 5% tax. Luis.

If money is not a problem then I would drive for 2 hours and go for the Rockwool.... Also how much will you be buying? If its a lot your better off if the deliver it. I got some mineral wool 4" thick...that absorves 100% all the way down to 125Hz for my studio.... I got it delivered...

Thanks Kevin, I need to seal the plywood joints....and I am only doing one layer of plywood for my floor...3/4". If silicon works for than then... that's cool cause I have some already. By the way...I have some pics..but I haven't been able to post them because the files are too big....any...

Hi, What can I use to seal between plywood sheets on a floating floor.... Is there some stuff I can buy at Home Depot... Let me know... Cheers, Luis.

Re: hey ! Since you are going to use genelec speakers here is some good information I got from them 2 weeks ago. "Here are the recommended maximum listening distances based on dispersion and acoustic output for stereo environments. For Multichannel multiply by 1.33 1029A...5 feet...

Thanks Steve, You just cleared up a lot of doubts I had in my mind. All my walls are John's inside out design. 2x4 studs with 4" rockwool in the cavity... 2 layers of 5/8" sheetrock and 3 1/2" R13 insulation on the outer side. The walls of my basement are concrete. Do you think the 2 layers...

Michael, How does the wall get secured to the ceiling....only pressure between ceiling joist- rubber padd- and top plate of the wall ?..... Or do you need to put some kind of glue to hold it together. Since we are trying to isolate wall from ceiling I guess screws between these 2 are a NO NO...

Bump... Hummm....50 hits and no one has nothing to say.... I can use a little help here. Thanks, Luis.

Hi all, I have some questions and concerns regarding my ceiling and wall plan. Just so you know…the walls would be resting on a floating floor. Since pictures explain better than words...check the attached drawing for detail. 1. Which is the correct way to joint the wall with the ceiling...

Hi sjoko, Your studio looks awesome....... Just wondering what can you say about the control 24 board. Do you recomend it? I really need to get one of those. Cheers, Luis.

I guess probably not.....and now that you said that I just realized that the slots that I am doing will be triangular shape anyways where the cavity would be more than 3 1/2". Thanks, Luis.

Hi all, I found this stuff called Roxul Safe and looking at the specs looks pretty good. Thickness 125 250 500 1000 2000 4000 NRC 3" 0.63 0.95 1.14 1.01 1.03 1.04 1.05 4" 1.03 1.07 1.12 1.04 1.07 1.08 1.10 The place where I found it only have it in 4"...

oooohhh...You should just go all the way then and get the 1036A's :-) . Yeap I think all the electronics for the monitor is on the back so it would make sense to dissipate heat on the back top and bottom....and no I don't have any dip-switch settings. Luis.
