Hi, Yes, also the space above the tiles had 2X8 rafters that were used to hold 8 inch bats of insulation. A double layer roof covered with heavy roll roofing. All the walls were double wall on the outside, stuffed with insulation and paneled on the inside. A Raised floor, also double layer on 2X8 beams on 12 inch centers with supports every 24 inches then covered with thick pad and carpet. It gave a reflective side walls and front wall with absorbing floor, ceiling (was sloped BTW to cut down on standing waves) and rear wall. It all was great until my spouse decided it was a great media room (yes there was a 55 inch flat screen with its own separate audio system). To keep the peace, I took over the living room. A mixed bag and it needed lots of TLC to get the sound right.

Good Listening
Bruce
