Does this divider help contain sound or just block your view?

No, it will only block your view. It's only 5ft high. Hope this helps you. :)

It is canvas so it likely will not block much sound....definitely block whatever it's in front of

I'm not so sure about containing sound. It breaks up a room well, but I don't think it would be what you might consider an incredible sound barrier.

Depends on how you mount it or attach it to the wall, I would think. Google sound dampening for walls, but this stuff might help. I did not use it for that purpose. Good Luck! R.

It's not loud enough to block out yelling I'm sure. But it does reduce random noise-for example my apt is just next to the elevator on my floor and it drowns out the "ding" & muffled voices of people in the hallway.

Not entirely. I never get perfect synch between sight and sound. This box made things a bit wirse.

Nope, mine is clear. If you get it too close to any magnetic devise, you will get background noises. Tv, stereos, head phones etc.

From a structural stand point, possibly but because of the speaker in the top, if you block the top in any way you will diminish a significant portion of the audio performance. The driver on the top of the center channel is quite important to the overall performance of this speaker. In short I'd advise against it. You would be better off buying/making a small auxiliary shelf or stand that allows at least 2 inches of clearance above the top of the speaker.

Yes, I suppose it interferes, but it doesn't block the view. Just as looking through only the glass part of the window is different than looking through glass + screen. You can still see outside if that's your concern.

It DOES NOT work in both positions. It only blocks view from the left & rights sides when the phone is in the up/down vertical position. When you turn the phone on its side in the horizontal position (like watching a video), it does not block the view from the sides of you.

These will block out other stage sounds. They are made to be use with ear buds. I use mine with an Aviom sound system to choose which player I want to hear.

For the most part, at a low volume, you can block out most other ambient sounds, i.e. tv, talking in a room nearby, traffic sounds etc.

It might be worth the try. I don't know how much sound it blocks, but it makes my new downdraft more quiet. I don't know how loud it was before I put this in - I'm comparing with the sound of the old downdraft.

I agree with Gary. When set up as a stand, I think the cover resonates the sound pretty well - whatever loss there is seems to be compensated for by it directing the sound more to the sides rather than straight out the back (who thought that was a good idea?!). When flat behind the G Pad, it does muffle it some. If I want to listen to something on it, I usually use headphones or a bluetooth speaker, anyway.

Absolutely. There is a cut out specifically for the speaker so sound is not blocked at all. Hope this helps!

It will diminish any noise to some degree, but if it's coming from outside, putting it in the window will block some of it. These work best to keep sound from bouncing off walls.

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.

I do not think it will interfere with watching videos, it is not loud at all. I use it in my office (4 open cubilcles) and no one even knows I have it on.
