How effective is this in reducing street noise?

I would imagine not at all. This is a film to put on windows for visual privacy, not to eliminate sound.

I wouldn't expect it to be effective in reducing noise -- it's a very thin piece of plastic (maybe 3x as thick as Saran wrap)that sticks on the window.

It depends on how loud you listen to the music in your ears, if it's loud, it should drown out exterior noise pretty well

I would have to say it eliminates most background noise. Of course there are some things that are loud nearby that get in the way of what/who you are listening to. Overall it does a good job of keeping out unwanted noise. Hope this helps.

Very quite. With road noises and any audio, this is typically not heard at all (even with no audio, noise is minimum)

Not sure about street noise but I use them as in ear monitors in our worship band. I am situated directly in front of the drum cage and they seem to work good for me. They don't sit deep in the ear canal but with the right Comply foam tips I get good isolation.

The silencer does work, it does narrow down the sound with it. It doesn't get annoyingly loud with the silencer but it does sound as if the silencer is moving. Honestly, I would take it of but it's your option. I noticed the difference the moment I took it of from the outside and inside of my car.

I believe so. We have it mounted on a jail transport van, and it is loud enough to warn pedestrians, but not so loud to wake up the neighborhood at night.

Yes it will help- it is meant for temp insulation, but it also helps with sound to a lesser degree.

No. It had minimal noise reduction. Try a additional or larger gauge ground wires. Good Luck

I have used this on two of my car projects, nice to work with on a fairly flat surface. It has to be glued in place, so I would recommend using on top only. It will make a definite noise reduction for you. You should look into the heat insulation/sound deadener also, it will also help the sound and vibration from the body and can be applied to the under side easily. jon

Not positive about blocking out road construction, but this little machine can get very loud. I'm betting it would drown out that noise outside.

If my husband has the stereo too loud in the next room I can still hear the bass tones. This machine reduces noise but doesn't block out noise. I live on a busy street and it greatly reduces street noises.

Yes. See Mr. Norman's response which is exactly what I did. I found an immediate change in my, west facing, garage temperature and a reduction in cooling costs (heating also now) It also reduced noise from the street. Good product and good value.

Sorry, but I don't really know. I plan to try mine for outdoor noises this summer in various locations. It probably will pick up not too distant noises. The times I have used it. It has been inside.

That is not too different from my application, so it should help. It will stop resonance and provide some sound absorption.

I used this for packing items when I moved. I do know that it would be good for insulation of your home if attached over your windows. Do not know about soundproofing or other outdoor noise. I imagine it would help keep some noise out.GOOD LUCK.

Honestly... It does work don't get me wrong but if you car has enough road noise to the point where u need it all in the floor board I would go with dynamat or roadkill sound deadner, it's the best thing you could ask for in hard to reach enclosed areas but it dosent com pair to a matting, that being said,It would work to kill some of the road noise but it's nowhere near as good as matting
