Does the added weight reduce velocity enough to reduce noise significantly? (below the sound barrier)
334438
In a .22 pellet (even a standard weight .22 pellet) the additional weight (as compared to a .177 pellet) reduces the velocity to something sub-sonic and there is no sonic crack from the pellet itself. The noise from firing the rifle is all you hear - if it is a quiet rifle, it will fire quietly. The pellet speed will depend on the power of the rifle, this heaver pellet would allow greater energy from the rifle before the pellet would be fired as super-sonic speeds causing the louder sounds.In a .22 rifle, this heavier pellet would be better for countering the effects of wind on accuracy than for reducing noise from the pellet speed for most rifles.

Using these in my benjamin 342 The pellet does not exceed the sound barrier. I have not noticed any significant difference in sound between this and lighter pellets

that would depend entirely on the gun used. It doesn't reduce noise in my 2400kt, from which the noise comes from expanding gas at the end of the muzzle. very few .22 airguns are capable of breaking the sound barrier and I'd be willing to bet a suppressor would be more beneficial in your case.In my particular gun, I lose about 150 feet per second but gain roughly 4 ft-lbs using these pellets.

On a hard surface, no. Not at all. But if u put it on something like carpet, it does just a little. I was surprised tho, because it doesn't make a hugely noticeable difference in sound.

No. If your referring to external noise, there is very little, if any noise reduction. The ear pieces have a foam cover that does little to keep noise out. Hope this helps.

No, the machine's noise is minimum and nice. You can check it out on YouTube.

The product is a thin, light weight foam strip with adhesive on one side. I used it to seal air gaps around the window discharge hose for a portable A/C unit in a bedroom. In my opinion there is not enough mass in the foam to effectively limit sound transmission. Of course, anything would block some sound, but I feel 100% certain that this would not be effective for what you are trying to do.

It should reduce it but be aware that each panel weighs about 10 lbs.It also depends on a lot of factors. All around dampening or noise reducing products only reduce noise. Blocking all noise and completely soundproofing is best handled by pros and expensive (think recording studios).It also depends on your window and walls. Insulation in the walls or thicker sheetrock reduces noise. Properly sealing Windows does too. I put a panel on two windows closet to an annoying and loud dog behind our house. It sounds better but not as much as I would have liked for the cost. Found out later that these walls are not insulated.

Yes - it seems to make a little less noise if you keep it in a soft case though (we have a 9'5").

The answer would require special measurement equipment (that I don't have), but will also greatly depend on the intake and exhaust ducts and whether all these are covered with a sound insulation. Probably the manufacturer has some data determined in "standard" conditions.

It does help block out a modest amount of noise, but it is not a solution for large noise issues. I hope this helps.

As far as the cables working on the pulleys, there's very little noise. However, if you drop the devices you're using and allow the weights to slam onto the stack, it is possible to make noise. There's a rubber shock absorber on the bottom of the weight stack that helps alleviate noise. If moderate care is taken during workouts, noise should not be a problem.

Yes it does prevent outside noise from coming in. If you have the volume turned down low, you can still slightly hear outside noise but otherwise it does a pretty good job of drowning outside noise. And yes sound does leak if you have the volume turned up high.

Its a great mat, But Im honestly not sure about the noise reducing. Im a personal trainer, and I use it outside at parks for people to drop the barbell on when we do things like deadlifts and cleans.

As Mack replied, I'm sure this rubber mat help reduce the thumping noise from the trampoline feet hitting your floor (wood?), but won't totally reduce the noise level. Couldn't be worse, only better.

Sorry I don't know. I purchased for resale and the customer has not mentioned any excessive noise

My installation is on an outside wall under a covered porch. There is plenty of volume. I get quite a bit of wind noise but have never tested the audio quality.

I would assume any padding will lessen the noise. I have this setup in garage so I can't speak from experience. Maybe someone who has similar setup to your will have a more concrete answer.

It reduces the noise somewhat. I only covered a door but I figure it you use it over a larger area you will have silence
