Soundman2020, 9 May 2016Hi Sam, and Welcome! :) Nope. That would be a 3-leaf system, which would be a very inefficient way of doing it, and would not isolate well at all for low frequencies.…
azurr, 19 May 2016Thank you for your reply, My reasoning was based on the diagram where in the ' excellent' 1 = brick wall and stud wall and 2 = inner studio wall Image not preserved:…
