Manufacturer's Description for Auralex U-Boat Floor Floaters

Made of a specially-formulated rubber compound, U-Boat Floor Floaters are Auralex's proprietary U-shaped channels used to support framing members and float (isolate and decouple) them from the surrounding structure. With the help of U-Boats, a floated room features greatly improved transmission loss (isolation) and low frequency definition (translated: a tight, floated room will always sound better!).

U-Boats are the industry's most affordable floating solution and are much easier to use than those exorbitant "pucks" had been used in the past. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Auralex products.

Size (WxHxL): 2 1/8 x 1 1/2 x 2 in.

Color: Black

Thickness: sides = 5/16 in. and base=1/2 in.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "good enough"

Sound: Sound is up to application and spacing. We built a 600 square foot sound floor for our live room. You have to think about building your floor the same way you would an acoustic guitar. The purpose of these items is to create a gap between the substrate and the floor. Worth it if you have a studio on concrete that aggregates subs or if you are looking to build additional treatment between traditional floors in a residential building. I am giving it a 5 because you need to know how to use them or they are useless. Feature: No real features, they are a 2x2 rubber U joint. Ease of Use: Giving this a 5 because most people are not Journyman carpenters like I am. If you know how do build out things yes they are easy, if you have a problem hanging a picture you will have a lot of issues. Quality: Goood Qaulity. When we move out of the studio we are in we are tearing up the floor to use them again. Value: A bit pricy, but that auralux for you. Really these things should be about half the price. Mostly because in application you have to use a lot. We only went with this because the acoustiblock foam flooring had to be custome ordered. I am also sure you can do the same thing with rubber stoppers from a science store that sell for 50 per and not 2.00 per. Manufacturer Support: If you need support for a rubber flooring joint, again this is not the product for you. The Wow Factor: if you are into u shaped rubber... totally sexy. Overall: Good product but too expensive when you realize there are alternatives.
