Hello,
This isn't necessarily home theater related but a build of sorts. I have an office that I'm remodeling and it sits right below our babies room. In efforts to keep the sound isolated a bit I was thinking of installing furring channel on the ceiling.
Is this the correct type of furring channel to get in order to decouple the drywall from the ceiling?

Also in efforts to preserve ceiling height is it ok to run 2x4's set up inside the joists a bit and then attach the channel to that? I believe some one on here did this but I don't remember who.
What type of clips would I need to get? Would they be the whisper clips from the Soundproofing Company?
Thank you!
