Hi Folks,
I have a few questions about recessed lighting. I'm in the process of setting up my multi-purpose/theatre room, and will be dry walling the ceiling next week.
Right now, the ceiling beams are exposed to hang my electro screen and run wiring. The room currently has 8 pot lights. While I've read these kind of lights are bad for sound escaping, I need to keep them, as I don't have room for sconces.
I plan to be double drywalling the ceiling w/Green Glue next week.
Is there anything I can do to seal these lights to limit sound transmitting to upstairs?
Also, is it worth it to re-wire the lights, so that the 2 closest to the screen are on a different switch? I'm thinking this may be a good idea...
Any tips would be super helpful!
