Any idea if this will help reduce outside noise much?

I dont think it will help with noise - I still run an air purifier to distract them while I am gone - also if you put on painted surface it will take of the paint if pulled away.

It won't eliminate all the noise, but it should help decrease it to the point it's able to be ignored. It turns the shrill metallic ear piercing noise my table saw makes into a dull tolerable drone. So a party thru a wall should be no problem.

not likely. Some work to reduce or block certain types of noise. Such as airplane engine noise, but not loud music.

You will still be able to hear people around you speaking, although again it will be muffled. You might do better with a pair of music earpieces/headphones designed to cancel ambient noise.

Yeah. This sound machine does pretty loud. If it is near by it should do the job.

It's worth a try. I covered my living room wall with this to dampen neighbor's noise. It dampens the noise from outside by maybe 20-30 percent.

I don't think it will do much, if you have normal neighbors and just want to quiet down a tv on the other side it might help muffle slightly. Think if it as ceral cardboard box material, maybe a little thicker but not as thick as cardboard. if you glued it to the wall its gonna do something but not a way whole lot. for the noise or for insulation. and the stuff is way to expensive. Personaly I'd go with something else Heck even cardboard egg crates and roll or blown in insulation might be better for neighbors noise... hope this helps.

I believe it would. I use it to block noise from outside, and the sound of television or music downstairs. It works great for me. You can adjust the sound to be either a higher or deeper sound so I would think it would work to block out a low deep noise. I love it and bring it everywhere I go!

It cuts down on noise but doesn't completely block it out. Certainly less noise then if the window was open without the a/c in place.

Hi, in my experience, this is very basic sound proofing. So can't expect too much. But if you stick them all over the room including ceiling, and rug on floor, it dose help reduce the volume.

I have to second Joe M's answer. The most effective noise reduction solution is a set of cheap foam ear plugs.

No. A sound barrier, like mass loaded vinyl, would help some but you would still have vibrations.

it will definitely muffle and reduce the transmission of sound, but not completely. also it's not really meant for that purpose, it's primarily meant to go inside the walls

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

You may be able to get a noise filter. I have seen them online and at radio shack

It will fix most of the sound leak but that's only when played rather loud and the vents being covered will dramatically reduce the bass and shrink the sound stage. I know because I tried this in public places and at home to see what it would do.

It helps eliminate noises, but does not block all noises out. Plus it only works for the peson who has it in the room, so if you are trying to block out your noise so the neighbors dont complain or hear, then you need to buy some ear phones and be more respectful.
