could these be placed on a wall of concrete blocks for noise control in a church toddler room?

They could, I suppose, but they are probably not thick enough for acoustic purposes. They are fun and would be perfect for the flooring. Couldn't ask for an easier installation!

I would say no, these are really thin, and the amount of prep to get them to stick would be a pain, I would recommend a foam brick, and use spray on adhesive.

Don't know why not as long as concrete blocks are properly prepared & titles are properly attached

Mine is in a free-standing workshop and I do use earmuffs when it's running.It is not as loud as some but any of these systems might wake your kids two floors up.

Of course! But be advised that these are rear ported, so they sound best when they are at least several inches away from the wall.

i don't believe so bruce. they are designed to be placed at least a foot away from a solid surface i.e. the wall. Bose recommends 18 inches from the wall yet they can be mounted on a wall. inside a closed box i just don't know. seems like someone from bose might have a more definitive answer.

Don't think so, but we use them (3) in our Children's Child Care a pretty noisy place... and I'm kinda' hard-of-hearing....

They are really made to reduce "Reflections" of sound in a room, Might not reduce noise that much on the other side of a wall, you would need a more dense material to block the sound. Would be better of with sound proofing or deadening sheets if you are able to install. Also quietrock.com drywall, but you probably can't do that much to the apartment.

I would think so, but I'm not sure. Unless you can put them on different channels, you wouldn't know which kid was making the noise. I wouldn't buy these again anyway. The parent unit frequently loses the signal from the baby unit and makes an annoying beeping sound. It's frustrating when that's what wakes you up in the middle of the night.

I don't belive so. We used them to make a confrence room have less echo. They worked for that, but are just foam.

Hi! I own these, but I installed with hollow wall anchors into drywall. I feel you in regards to plastic inserts into concrete, NOT the way to go ! Get wedge type anchors from Menards, Home Depot, LOWE'S, etc. if memory serves correctly, the mounting holes are only about 5/16, so 4 small concrete anchors would be more than enough to hold up a speaker. The anchors won't need to be more than 1.5 inches long. Hope this helps! Loni S Howard Howard Productions, LLC

They would probably work pretty well as far as blocking out those noises once you are already asleep or are falling asleep. They are good for muffling those kind of noises well but not so good at deep rumbling noises that kind of shake the walls. I guess that's a good thing though, so you could still hear someone banging on the door if necessary.

Maybe. Though I would think if you gave them to your loud bass playing neighbors, they would work better. They would reduce the sound vibrating the floor and going through the walls. If the bass is actually causing your bed to shack, then these could help that. But they are not going to make the sound any less.

Hi Chad. Yes. I'd put them on opposing walls and on as many surfaces as I can. The idea behind this foam isn't sound attenuation its sound treatment. You want to reduce or eliminate as much sound wave bounce or natural echo as you can. I hope that was helpful. Good luck on your build.

Probably not suitable for children under 5-6, as they might swallow the product. Besides, I can't imagine why and in what situation children should need to use earplugs to block noise!

No, they work very well in a home environment feeding maybe 1000 sq feet. That's with minimal ambient noise. A room full of people making noise would make these things be turned way up and distort. My opinion.

Yes they can. Typically you will see rectangular speakers in the wall and that is to allow for separate larger speakers in the enclosure. These will work fine in the wall.

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