we have it to use.
BTW, thanks for taking the time to do that testing.

Back to the "home" testing with that software and a mic?
Okay, you got me. You win.
So, people interested in these products should simply disregard Owens Corning' own very expensive, very detailed spec analysis of their own products; products for which they have a Multi-multi million dollar interest in, products that were tested at an acoustical lab, (not at home!
) and agree with these conculsions? I don't think anyone is that dumb, certainly not folks who are willing to look at facts.
And GLENN KURAS, even
you don't believe that "home testing" vs REAL acoustical lab analysis of products.
As you've concluded elsewhere, home testing is nowhere NEAR accurate or even appropriate (compared to testing in an acoustics lab) when testing a device's or product's performance. If you did Glenn, you'd forget about spending the
thousands of dollars you've already spent and will spend testing your OWN products at a
REAL acoustical laboratory (Riverbank Acoustical Labs) and would turn instead to
HOME testing with software and a mic. It's a hell of a lot cheaper, (almost no cost at all) you too would get to control the outcome of the tests, and you'd get to create fancy looking charts to post on your website. At last glance Glenn, you've stuck with REAL testing, and therefore must conclude that 703 is better than 705 because HOME testing doesn't accurately analyze an acoustical treatment devices performance. You don't believe in HOME testing Glenn Kuras, and you've proven that.
The question now is, why do you want others to believe you do?

Where's the home testing?
And, how about that bet?
Good luck,
