Float floor on expanded polyester?

[H-Musikk]

Hi,
I'm new here. Just stared to bulid up a studio in my basement. I have one little question (I've tried to find the answere here but havn't) Because of the limited hight of my rooms I plan to use expanded polyester direct on the concrete and bulid the floor up on that. Will this give me a sufficient floating floor???

Hi,
Sorry, but I can't find anything about expanded polyester in the treads you pointed me to (or maybe your caling it something else in thre US?)

The expanded polyester I plan to use is about 2" (5 cm)

Gunnar -

The point of the links I gave you had to do with the logic of building a flaoting floor if you aren't doing it out of concrete.

Read through them.

Also importantly read this thread http://www.recording.org/ftopict-28211.html

It's very unlikley you'll need a floating floor. If you do, then it's important to do it properly!!!
