The obvious advantage to this product is its combined ability to both "block" noise from bleeding through a common wall, and "absorb" noise reflecting back into your room.     The ideal treatment here should include attaching these panels with the Rotofast clip system to firring strips that have been brace horizontally against your wall.    This will help trigger a disconnection point between your finished panel system and the structure of your room, creating a dead air pocket for the sound wave to collapse.

However, if your primary goal is transmission loss, we recommend you study the techniques outlined at in the Walls section of our Applications Guide.    There we discuss the use of dB-Bloc and the proper framing options designed to trigger the disconnect you need in your common wall structure to help force the collapse of the sound wave inside your assembly.    This may prove a less costly, albeit more invasive installation procedure, but will yield no absorption coefficients back into your room.
