WTB (Sydney): Acoustisorb 3

[Sammas]

Hey chaps,

Figured I would ask here before ordering a new bag. I'm chasing a couple of sheets of acoustisorb 3. If you have any gathering dust that you want to move on, drop me a PM!

[gigpiglet]

yes! (i think) ill have to look in the garage..
there are certainly some "pieces" not sure if there are any full sheets..
how much do you actually need? and ill check what i have

[Sammas]

Hey Gareth!

I was hoping for about a bag (three 1200x2400 sheets) with the intention of cutting it into smaller panels. If you have more, less, anything useable I'd love to take it off your hands!

[Sammas]

Where do people source their Acoustisorb from?

This is the only place I can find online that actually lists prices.

Apparently you can order it through Bunnings. I should look into it.

[Manning]

Nath (or anyone) - did you ever find out if you can get this from Bunnings? I spoke to a guy there and he looked at me blankly.

Hey Manning!

I never really followed it up to be honest... but I have had a chat to my housemate who works behind the special orders & trade counter at the local bunnings. I know they don't usually stock Acoustisorb, but according to her they can order anything in as long as it appears on their list of suppliers.

I am sure I have seen tontine something or other in bunnings, so I imagine you could place a special order.

Check out Martini Industries as well. They make an Acoustisorb equivalent product called polymax.

[Manning]

Cool, thanks for the tip on Polymax. I dug around and the comparable product to Acoustisorb 3 looks to be Polymax Absorb XHD - http://www.polymaxinsulation.com.au/aco ... etail.html

Naturally no-one will even hint at prices... Bah. I'll get on the phone tomorrow.

Hey Manning,

We have been buying Acoustisorb from Mitre 10 in Canterbury for a really good price.
Give me a call and I can give you the details.

[Manning]

Wow - you actually have an account on this forum?

LOL... nice to see you here Steve. Will call ASAP.
