BXI Sound Absorber - 16 X 12 X 3/8 Inches 6 Pack High Density Acoustic Absorption Panel, Sound Absorbing Panels Reduce Echo Reverb, Tackable Acoustic Panels for Wall and Ceiling Acoustic Treatment

In an apartment flanked by the bustling subway line, the BXI Sound Absorber panels have brought much-needed quiet. Designed to capture and dampen sound, these panels have been particularly effective in my study, where clarity and concentration are paramount.Performance: The sound-absorbing material is excellent at reducing incoming noise, particularly the higher frequencies of screeching brakes and clattering tracks.Ease of Use: Lightweight and easy to install, these panels can be arranged in various configurations to optimize sound absorption, making them versatile for any room layout.Aesthetic Versatility: Available in several colors, they can be arranged in aesthetically pleasing patterns that enhance rather than detract from home decor.Overall Experience: The BXI Sound Absorber is more than just functional; it’s a critical component of my home’s defense against external noise. It’s a top-tier choice for urban dwellers facing similar acoustic challenges.

The sheets are smaller, meant to be tiled or used in small applications. They are quite thick, durable, and a little tricky to cut. So far I've simply lined square areas to deaden sound but I find many other uses now that I have extra. It's a firm but forgiving surface so I've even used it as a workspace protector.One of the more interesting projects was to clean up a car radio install that had a floating screen. The material is cheap, versatile, and reasonably easy to work with so it ended up working well in this space. I cut the rectangle with a razor, then cut out the opening in the center. After that I realized I needed to thin certain areas of the material to make it fit - this was surprisingly easy. You can use the blade to dig out areas, even creating angled relief spots to get the perfect fit. Since it's a fibrous material it has some flexibility and can compress a tiny bit. At the end of the day it also cut down on the noise transfer from the once partially occupied double DIN area with a poor seal. Hacky use case, but I like it.

First and foremost, these work. Polyester panels are very good at absorbing noise, echo, and reflections in a room.However, at only 3/8" thick, they're a little less effective on their own than I expected for the price. If I double them up on the wall, it makes a noticeable difference compared to just a single layer of panel. Unfortunately, this means that some 2" thick foam panels do a similar job for cheaper (but also uglier). Perhaps BXI will consider sourcing a 3/4" or 1" thick panel. I can't recommend these as your only acoustic panels in the room, that would be expensive. But, they do work well in conjunction with foam panels and bass traps. If you already have some egg crate foam and it's not cutting it, add these.In short, I would buy these for any home office to help with acoustics, but I wouldn't try building a home theater with these panels alone.Please also note that these are not for soundproofing, so if you're looking to isolate yourself from your neighbors or traffic, you need to look at sound deadening material and/or acoustic insulation.

Panels are ok, I wish’s they have some sticky traps to hold the panels on place or any other way to hold them in place

This is some very legit foam, has some weight to it which is the way it works, no secrets, mass=friction.WARNING: I see a lot of negative reviews from people who don't know anything about acoustics... They seem to think that the purpose of foam is to block sound. Silly, that's not what foam does. If your goal is to block sound you want mass-loaded vinyl, NOT foam.You choosing the wrong product does not make the product bad, it simply means you don't know what you're doing. Foam = Absorption (of high frequencies in this case due to thinness) which reduces echos in that same room. Heavy Vinyl = Blocking sound passing through.

While this is designed as an absorber it also works well as an isolation pad. My speakers sit on a tile floor and the tile is textured so leveling and vibration was always problematic but these pads solved that problem because of the rigid design of these. They are not made of foam but perfect for my setup. Recommended product.

Complete waste, doesn't work at all. I bought 2 thinking it might help if I cover 100%, but this provides no noise absorption at all. It's simply too think for that. Do not waste your money in this and looks elsewhere

For my purposes this stuff worked great. 3 goals: a) black out the wall with projector screen b) hide water main door under screen with a durable/removable tile system, c) improve audio performance in room. Accomplished all three goals. Biggest feedback I wanted to give was I’d ther tiles were cut less than square, as others have said, I didn’t notice. Seems are almost inditectable and that’s a white wall behind them. Little patience and I think you could do anything with these. They are rigid so cutting them cleanly is best done with a craftsman handi cut or similar leverage based cutting tool - no scissors or saws. Pictures provided to prove results. Good luck.

Buen producto pero son pocos por el precio 🙁

مايعزل الصوت. بس منظر لا اكثر

Since having to work from home, I needed something to dampen the noise as my home office and our bedroom share a wall. We live in an old apartment building so as you can imagine the walls are paper thin! These worked great! I purchased the camel color panels and they added a nice color and texture to the overall appearance and feel of the room. I also put two on to the back of the office door and it really helped to cut down the sound coming in and going out.Because I live in an apartment, I didn't want to stick these on the wall using two sided tape, if we move I want to be able to easily taken these down without damaging the panels or the walls, so instead I used command picture hanging strips (large size, 4 per panel)- they worked perfectly! It was definitely an added expense, but for my purposes it was worth it. If you need to cut these panels to accommodate outlets/wall size etc., a plain old utility knife does the trick! You'll just need to be patient as you'll have to run the utility knife through a couple of time using steady pressure to get a clean cut.One detail to pay attention to when hanging these- some panels have "veining" on one side (but all have a flat smooth side) which I didn't notice until I had full sunlight coming into the room, so pay attention to which side you use.

it works if you put very close to the dr gap, improving the isolation of the sound .

I have these spread out across one wall of my room. On other the wall, I've hung moving blankets on curtain rods. The moving blankets were comparable in price, and they've have much better coverage and a more noticeable effect. However, not everyone will like the look of the moving blankets in their bedroom, so these are better for aesthetic.... the problem is, you need a lot of them to cover an entire wall, and the cost adds up fast. They aren't adhesive, so I stuck Command velcro strips all along the wall to hold them in place. If you only care about the soundproofing, then I think you can find cheaper DIY methods to deaden a room. These have a solid weight to them, and they might actually do a better job than the blankets if you completely cover the area with them?? But that's waaay to much money and work. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone on a budget. (which is most musicians... go figure)
