SBX boards - Acoustic floor insulation


They are effective in:
- Blocking airborne noise rising from below ( and from your room to the room below) - be aware they are far more effective than rubber mat solutions for this purpose which typically offer only 5dB of airborne protection.
- Decreasing your impact sound experienced to the room below.
- Improving the acoustics in the soundproofed room.
The unique fluted inner core of SBx boards allow "give" while maintaining its shape. This award winning German design means that the board can be used as a rigid surface that will still reduce impact sound considerably.
SBx Boards are very simple to install with the boards simply being laid butted together on the floor beneath a carpet, tiles, floating floor or laminate. For a full description of the boards see SBx boards on our products page. We are of the opinion that the SBx boards offer the best performance to thickness ratio of all above the floor soundproofing products, outperforming heavy rubber mats when stopping sound rising.

Solution Reviews
Add a reviewWhen all else failed this did the trickReally delighted with the SBX board. We had a problem floor and we had spent a lot of money on trying to have it soundproofed. We went for the belwo the floor solution using 100kg density mineral wool, called desne fibre matting. We had added plasterbaord belwo the floor as well. After the job we were dissapointed. We phoned SoundStop and they were worried bout a steel in our floor which might be allowing all the noise to falnk up thought the steel. This meant that all our efforts felt a bit wasted. We took the plunge and as a last ditch wenht for the Tecsound and SBX board. The differene was amazing. I wish we hadnt bothered with all the mess and hassle of the first solution. The nosies which we had been hearing such as counghing and talking were eliminated. WThe product performed beyond our expectations. Thanks Soundstop |

Excellent productEasy to use! We had various problems with noise coming from below. We had tried various solutions . As a last resort we tried the SBX board and it did what all the other things had failed to do. That was to stop the noise from below. |

Surpisingly goodOur expectation for the product was quite good given the reviews we had read but we were surprised at how effective they were. We had orginally tried to sound proof our floor with mineral wool belwo the floor boards. ( Not from soundstop). The results were not great and we were informed we had probably used the wrong density. I decided I could not face lifting floor boards again. We went for a combination of Tecsound and the SBX baords. We are really pleased with the result. I would say it has eradicated all TV noise and normal conversation. Loud music does penetrate at the bass end of the frequency scale but the result is so much better. |

Good Product Depsite leaky boardThe product did the job well. It was a bit messy cutting the boards and a couple arrived with sand leaking from them. I think these might have been handled badly in transport. Once we understood how to cut and tape the boards the job was relatively straighforward.A video would help! |
