OK I get the picture - no one here knows!
It was a good suggestion from John but if I can't get it - that poses a little problem..

I checked out the Dacron from the source you suggested - woooooagh!! The price was DOUBLE that of Rockwool - and even the rockwool is expensive!
After our chat Rob and I considered it carefully - with discomfort issues etc and the price just doesn't justify it.
I let the supplier know about the price difference so they came back with the old argument that Dacron is most suitable and designed specifically for the job - no discounts mentioned etc.
Sounded like Ford versus Holden - or PC vs Mac, Catholic vs CofE for that matter....same thing to me...
Oh well we tried....I appreciate your help John.

The Acoustisorb 2 50mm sqm price is $15.02 incl GST and the 75mm sqm price is $24.20 (apparently this not actually dacron but polyester)
Rockwool is approx $9 nett per sq/m
