Objective is to block or reduce sound going out of a room especially & coming into it.Placing these in the room-will this work, or is there better way

It will work only if the sound leaks from the walls / doors that you plan you cover.

They will help reduce the mid-to-higher frequencies from going through the walls but you will need bass traps for the lower and more problematic frequencies. Bass traps are easy to make. See how-to on YouTube.

If you insultated the walls and use these it will result in a sound reduction.

Honestly, this will not reduce light inside the room. If reducing light is your goal, a curtain/blind would be a better solution. This is just window film used to maintain privacy yet still allow light inside.

i would think they'd do the trick for you. they don't block out everything, but definitely take the "hard edges" off sound. i work in a very noisy office, and since using these, nobody is in danger of getting smacked anymore <grin>

They will help, but will not stop sound. They mainly reduce reflections on bare walls.

These are for acoustics, to balance out frequencies when listening and recording. It's entirely different than soundproofing. Soundproofing is what you need, not this. Short answer: No.

I would suggest they would be as effective as an able person "calling out", so between nearby rooms with open doors they should be OK for this purpose. Ours are too new to comment on sound volume as batteries wear out. They take 2 x AAA batteries and need a small Phillips ("cross") screw driver, so use quality alkalines (like Duracell or Energizer). At the low price for these buzzers, it's a great idea to try for that purpose and, if they don't suit, maybe donate them to your local school? :-)

It should cancel out the noise, but they are a bit bulky. If you want to hear voices some others allow those sounds to be heard while filtering the white noise. If you don't care about voices, these are great and very affordable.

I think that might work. It would stop the sound once closed. A motion detector might also work. This brand works great.

No they don't block out noise. They work for me because I want to be aware of sound around me but I can still enjoy my music at the same time. I hope this helps you.

It's quickly delivered to me. .For my case, we planned to put it on the window to block noise outside from AC units, but it is kind of difficult because it is heavy, also tiny fiber inside seems easily leek out, which is dangerour to my kids. So my conclusion is that it is best for blocking noise in garage or other non-living places.

Not sure what you are asking, but I would think these would help those who have some hearing impairment. We use them because we are in a room with a high ceiling and cannot hear the words clearly in spoken dialogue due to the poor acoustics in the room. They work great for that purpose.

I use it as a makeshift door for my room above the garage. I can hardly hear any noise at all coming from downstairs. If you tacked them on the wall adjacent to a noisy neighbor it would for sure cut down on the sound.

It's intended purpose is to tame room frequency peaks and nulls. I suppose if you want to alter the intended balance of the music it could be useful. I agree with Ashok, total overkill.

It definitely lessens them, but I doubt anything practical will completely block low deep noises, since these tend to pass through almost any barrier. Regardless, this is the best sound machine that I know of. The company also provides excellent service - twice sending me a new one when one of the two I recently bought had a problem. I've also bought several other models from them over the last 20 years or so for a variety of situations.

Hi, Yes that's exactly what this is intended to help with. It will remove a lot of the reflections in the room that create that boxy sound. It won't get rid of everything, but these often go a long way towards fixing those issues. If you found this helpful, please consider buying from us. We have this in stock and can ship within 1 business day. - Pixel Pro Audio

These will reduce echo only slightly, since the echoe's are coming off your walls and ceiling, not from the corners. Try the Auralex SonoLite 1 inch Thick, 2 Feet by 2 Feet Acoustic Absorption Panel's They come in black and tan and look really stylish. Each panel under $30. I have many of them and they work wonderfully.

I recently bought the Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7 headphones to block thumping and loud footsteps from my neighbor upstairs. Unfortunately, these muffle rather than block such sounds when no music is going through them. When I put on classical or ambient music, the loud parts block the thumping but I can still hear it when the music is quiet. So, these aren't a perfect solution. I suspect most noise-canceling headphones are intended to block constant low-frequency sounds rather than in-and-out random noises. Good luck to all of you dealing with noisy neighbors.
