I had a bad experience with this terrible product, which I believe is probably a health hazard. These tiles shed a dark gray powder whenever they are touched. It comes off on one's skin and clothing and is worse than sand from the beach. This is the second shipment I've received after I returned the first one for the same reason. I was told that this was a normal function of a flame retardant spray that snows off for the duration of the product. I was able to return it for a refund, (including shipping because I expressed so much dissatisfaction). I have to say that in my experience Parts Express is a pretty good vendor who is interested in your satisfaction. But if you are going to be satisfied with this product, you will need to use it in a way where you won't be exposed to it.

We've had this in our studio control room for over 10 years, and have even incorporated these tiles in the stairwells and hallways between recording areas. It has eliminated mid-range standing waves beautifully and the mixes we've sent out have been good enough for HBO, PBS, a couple of feature films and lots of other projects. The tiles look great and are easy to put up. And although there is nothing more horrifying than "sand from the beach", I have never noticed any dust at all from the tiles. Parts Express is an extremely reliable source for hard to find items and is much appreciated by professionals like me.

Put this up against a wall to muffle sound but not effective. Material is not dense, more like packing styrofoam.
