Ceiling 703 panels...To glue or not?

Post by Krubbadoo »

Hey guys.
My studio build is almost done and I really think we did a good job as far as isolation goes (double stud walls, resilliant channels ceiling with double 5/8 gyproc etc...)
We also got some nice 6 inch Bass traps and several 3 inch acoustical panels for room treatment.
We are now at the ceiling stage :)
I plan to build some 703 made panels to reduce floor to ceiling reflection (since floor is from laminated wood). Instead of hanging the panels and drilling more holes in the gyproc ceiling, I was wondering if there is another way of glueing or velcro the 703 based panels? Is it gonna be solid enough? Doesn't seem so heavy (2 inch 703). Any suggestions are welcome Thanks for your help.

welcome! please update your profile to include your location information. gluing is an option as well as industrial velcro. however, you might be better served by using 4" absorbers and angling or suspending them down a bit from the ceiling (assuming you have room) to improve its effectiveness.
