Can this be used in walls behind in-wall speakers to help keep sound from traveling to an adjacent room?

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

It should be okay as long as the shelf is open on both ends. You don't want to cover up the speakers on each end of the soundbar.

Depending on the height of the speaker, yes it may hinder up/down movement. I suppose you could put an additional piece (block of wood) between the bracket and the wall to allow more movement so that the top and bottom of the speaker will be further away from the wall. Hope this helped.

Yeah, it's basically just an extension chord mounted behind the wall. It works great for TV's because the 2" circular outlet is hidden behind the tv and you can run other chords along with it, whereas this might be an eyesore next to a tiny speaker. I don't think you can just run the chord for your Sonos behind the wall, so this might be the best solution. It's really just the novice DIY way of putting an electrical outlet up in a place where you don't have one.

Yes, but... it is best for optimum sonic balance and low frequency response to leave a few inches between the bass port on the back panel and any solid object like a wall behind it.

Yes. You'll be fine so long as you don't try to throw the whole output at them. Keep in mind that these are rear ported, so they should be left at least several inches off the wall for them to sound their best. If you plan to hang them right on the wall, then you should go with sealed cabinet or front ported speakers.

I have not had this problem. Position of the speakers in the room makes a difference, close to a wall or corner can affect the amount of bass reflected. Def Tech has allowed for this and placed a knob in the back towards the bottom that allows you to decrease the amount of bass of each individual enclosure. Other than this, you would have to decrease the bass output from your receiver.

The white noise setting pretty much does, although some of the other settings may not, as the sound is more intermittent. However, I'm not sure if it would block neighbors from hearing you, although probably, but only if you place it near the wall you share with them. It will block you from hearing them, though.

No..works fine under the TV....If your TV is hung on the wall you need to get alternative speakers.

Putting anything in front of a speaker will dull the sound but it will still work. Or just put it in the ceiling

I suppose you could... As long as the covering allowed sound to travel thru... Problem is there is an infra red remote signal receiver on the unit. It can install within about 3/4 of an inch below the tv.

The manual recommends experimenting with the distance to the wall as moving them closer reinforces the bass. This effect was noticeable where my speakers are located and they are 4 or 5 inches from the wall.

This is not the correct solution for that type of problem. If you are trying to soundproof one existing wall then there are many other solutions sandwiching drywall or using mountable sound reduction panels. If you are considering making a sort of open box or actual standing partition to help with some small noise reduction, then something like foam insulation boards (google generator hush box) would be much more practical.

These speakers aren't good candidates for wall mounting. Besides not having a wall mount bracket, they are also ported on the back. Ideally, the speakers would be placed at least 12 inches away from a wall for better sound.

Yes, I believe this Marpac would help. It may not completely eliminate noisy neighbor sounds, but when placed properly within the room it will definitely help.

NIKKI, these will help limit the bass from bouncing around your unit but it won't keep the sound out of your unit. For that, you need some serious insulation in the ceiling or walls you share. To really limit how much bass you hear from an adjoining unit is very hard without spending a lot of $$$ , as the low frequencies cause vibration in the structural framing, which tends to amplify the bass vibrations. That's why you also feel the bass in your floor and walls, not just hear it.Insulation will help but it won't eliminate it. Might be cheaper to buy noise canceling headphones or pay for music lessons so the quality of the bass playing improves! Reminds me of "Neighbors" by the Rolling Stones! Good luck!

Not that bad. Definitely not someone on other side of wall, but someone a few feet away in the same room will hear sound.
