    Just an update: after doing some more research I finally decided on a simple double layer of 2" OC 703 with a couple sheets of plywood on top. The room isn't quite ready to implement the platform so I haven't built it yet. The drum throne will sit on it's own separate riser next to the floating...

    Setting up my band rehearsal room above a bar in an old building, need advice!

    Hey everyone, I have a big project I'm undertaking this year. I am a singer/songwriter/guitarist and I'm shaking up my whole life, moving out of a long term relationship and into a new home and life for the next few years.
