Renovating a semi house and wondering about attaching these to the party wall. Currently get a bit of TV noise through but nothing drastic.

Not expecting silence and probably impossible to achieve as the joists run into the divide but it would be a fairly small outlay at the moment.

Anyone used them or have any comments?

I'd be looking at attaching them directly to the existing plaster / brick with two layers of sound board plasterboard attached - Not willing to sacrifice the extra 50mm for batons..

Also considered green glue but looks fairly costly!

That's what I had in my mind and for fairly little cost. Most methods involve 50mm batons on the wall and rock wool in between and then the resilient bars but but that's a fair bit more off the room!

I don't get impact noises as such. Its an old lady next door who has her TV on a bit loud. Maybe the layers of plasterboard dot and dabbed straight onto the wall will be suitable then?

To future proof it would be nice to cut impact noises out but I think it will be impossible with the house design. (Joists resting on party wall)
