Acoustic tiles can be quite effective in modifying/improving the acoustics
of a room - that's what they're really for. I can't really see something
light enough to stick on a ceiling being much use in cutting down noise
transmission, unless it's just high frequency which is unlikely. Before
spending money, I'd want chapter and verse in their claims for this.


Right. Bear in mind the sort of levels of reduction achieved in
practice are frequently quite modest. If you want serious reduction
youre going to need to get into it in much more detail than sticking
tiles up.
