So, I finished sealing the double door entrance with silicon molding. I am also going to layer the insides of the doors with foam. I wanted to hear if all my work paid off for isolation. So i took my stereo out of the bedroom,75watt/channel plus a sub and put it on the floor in the live area.I loaded it up with AC/DC Hells Bells and cranked it. I went in the living room and shut both doors. I could hear NOTHING!!!

The Boobie is an old S.O.B. (Son Of Boogie) It has a custom Poplar cabinet,Eminence Red Fang alnico speaker and Yellowjacket EL 84 tube coversion. Cuts the wattage in half. I use it more than the AC/30.

the studio looks beautiful!

if you haven't bought the desk yet... i'm in the process of building something fairly similar. the top of the desk will be 3' x 6' with a 4 space rack on each side and a bridge across the middle for the monitor. Supporting the desk will be a 12 space rack on the left (which is finished and in use) and a bookshelf on the left (i have long legs and 2 racks would give me too little leg room in the center, but you could easily just build a second 12 space rack). total it's probably going to cost around $100 for all the wood, screws and rack rails... the total is a little higher because i had to buy a few supplies (plywood blade for my circular saw, countersink bit, etc)... skill wise it wasn't too hard and would have been even easier if i bought the wood at a lumberyard where they can cut with precision, as opposed to lowe's where they won't cut any more accurately than 1".

This is the left side of the CR desk, Its a Raxxes;

This is the right side. Nothing is wired up yet as I'm waiting for my patchbay and have to work out the cables. The I-Mac is going to be retired to internet use, I just order a new MacPro 2.66 duo intel/ 8G RAM and a 22" screen

Hopefully next week I will install the CR glass.
