In general Green Glue is still getting rave reviews on the web.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The average gun lodge is a pretty simple structure. Most are built with hard wood floors and have relatively bare walls except &#8211; you know &#8211; for the mounted heads and prizes. While most people visiting the average lodge like to shoot there are often older members who want to do no more than relax inside while others would like to leave their families in the lodge while they hunt with friends.</p>
<p>In these cases, the simple bare walls don&#8217;t do much to shield against the high decibel sounds created by guns. The sounds are even worse if you&#8217;re a member of the type of lodge with an indoor range. If this is the case you should seriously considersound proofing your gun lodge.</p>
<p>Sure, the members of your lodge (most wearing ear protection) don&#8217;t mind the noise but perhaps your nearby neighbors will enjoy the improvements!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before you start your soundproofing project you&#8217;re going to have to do a bit of research. During that process, don&#8217;t become overwhelmed by the myriad of different tools and techniques you have available to you. Over time, we&#8217;re going to discuss which elements are more effective than others.</p>
<p>In the meantime, you should know that there are four main categories of materials used in <a title="room soundproofing" href="http://www.tmsoundproofing.com">room soundproofing</a>. They include:</p>
<ul>
<li><a title="sound absorption" href="http://www.tmsoundproofing.com/store/soundproofing-principles.html">Sound absorption</a></li>
<li>Mass bearing</li>
<li>Damping compounds</li>
<li>Decoupling materials</li>
</ul>
<p>Each works differently and would be used in different situations. Some can be combined and others should be used alone. If chosen carefully, you&#8217;ll get the absolute best soundproofing results possible. Our goal is to help you identify your problems and make the best choices possible,</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Are soundproof room dividers really soundproof?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The other day we read an article about using soundproof room dividers to lessen the noise in a room. The article claimed that freestanding dividers could lessen noise in home offices, call centers, office spaces, or even in rooms that children shared. The purpose is to lessen sound, but not eliminate it.</p>
<p>Soundproof room dividers will only lessen sound if the sound is natural &#8211; like normal toned voices, a television at a moderate volume, or a quiet phone in an office setting. The problem is that they are not a good solution if you really need a quiet environment in which you can focus.</p>
<p>They look good. They sound like a great alternative. But wouldn&#8217;t it be more effective to simply put up a soundproof, floor-to-ceiling wall instead? What do you think?</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you seen the new Lincoln MKT?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ford has certainly done it again, with the introduction of the 2010 Lincoln MKT. The MKT isn&#8217;t a mini-van, nor is it a station wagon. It&#8217;s more like a hybrid for families who need space and safety but really want the features of an SUV at the same time. This car certainly fits the bill.</p>
<p>You do realize, of course, that one of the reasons we like this vehicle so much is because the manufacturer included extra <a title="soundproofing" href="http://www.carguideweb.com/articles/8266/">soundproofing</a>, making the inside cabin ride incredibly quiet in addition to comfortable. Next time you&#8217;re near a Ford dealership, give one a test drive and see for yourself!</p>

		<title>Are Acoustic Panels Worth the Price?</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Are acoustic panels worth the price and effort?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Simply put, the answer to this question is yes. Here&#8217;s why.</p>
<p>When the average person designs a home theater, he thinks about the aesthetics of the room, but not always the acoustics. The truth is that every single aspect of a room impacts sound &#8211; from pain to furniture to window coverings. We forget these thins when we go out to buy huge chairs, entertainment centers, a big screen televisions. And, as such, we sometimes mess up the acoustics.</p>
<p>So how do we solve the problem? We hang a few decorative acoustic panels around the room. They can usually be chosen to fit your decor and, in the end, your <a title="soundproofing" href="http://www.tmsoundproofing.com">soundproofing</a> efforts won&#8217;t be for naught. You&#8217;ll end up with a gorgeous room, and a relaxing, quiet place to enjoy your movies.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Times are a bit tough right now, and we certainly understand how difficult it can be to figure out how to soundproof your home if you are on a budget. If you absolutely can&#8217;t afford to buy soundproofing materials, consider doing the job with some drywall. It won&#8217;t be as effective, but it&#8217;ll certainly help.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a brief video talking about how to install drywall for a <a title="soundproofing" href="http://www.tmsoundproofing.com">soundproofing</a> project.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s a story we&#8217;ve heard time and time again:</p>
<p>The Imperial will be reopening soon.</p>
<p>Yea. Right.</p>
<p>Apparently the owner of the Imperial Hotel, Shadd Danesi, claims the hotspot will be reopening soon. He says he&#8217;s trying to make sure his soundproofing is perfect so as not to disturb neighbors.</p>
<p>The story is getting old.</p>
<p>He needs to get some <a title="Green Glue" href="http://www.tmsoundproofing.com/store/home.php?cat=2">Green Glue</a>, get the job done, and reopen.</p>
<p>Perhaps <em>before</em> all of the club&#8217;s fans find another place to party.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just an FYI, but if you&#8217;re incredibly sensitive to noise you&#8217;re going to want to find a hotel that specializes in offering the quietest experience possible. We recently stumbled upon some information about a series of Sherton Hotels, also known as Starwood Hotels, that promise just that.</p>
<p>Most of these hotel rooms, located around the world, come with standard amenities, like sweet sleeper beds, high speed internet, and buffet breakfasts. What you&#8217;ll really enjoy, however, is the &#8220;high tech soundproofing&#8221; materials they used when designing the hotels. This is one place where a good night&#8217;s sleep is almost guaranteed.</p>
