trombles Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 anyone know where to score proper quilted sound blankets in berlin? they're proving surprisingly elusive. i've tried kortwich and a few g&l shops, so far no dice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungo Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Kortwich not? You can try calling Zeigermann in Hamburg or Ambient recording in Munich. That's both of course too far away, but maybe they know someone. German sound scene isn't that big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheSoundSideOfLife Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 You mean something like this? Not quilted and quite pricy, but available for pick up at the Berlin Moritzplatz store. https://www.justmusic.de/de-de/recording/zubehoer-fuer-studio/akustik-elemente/9163880/akustikvorhang-iso-schwarz.html Other addresses you could give a call (not sure if they have acoustic elements): Gruppe 3 Berlin +49 30 3980089 - 0 berlin@gruppe3.de KMR Audio Berlin +49 30 55230658 sales@kmraudio.de Digital AudionetworX +49 30 44328539 info@da-x.de Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantin Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Do they need to be in Berlin? I got mine from NoyzBoyz in the Netherlands. They‘ll ship them to you in Berlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalton Patterson Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Sound blankets are basically thick moving and storage blanket pads. I would question any company that says it is making specifically sound isolating pads that look identical to a furniture moving pad in my storage unit. $143 EURO from noyz boyz Maybe this blanket is a larger size? VS. $20.49 US from USCargoControl But you could buy 10 of these for that price. I'm just sayin... $as If you call a moving and storage company they will probably be glad to sell you some used or extra blankets they have stacked to the ceiling.

Plus shipping you‘ll have to quadruple that price at least, these things are heavy. Also, I can’t tell from your pictures if they are the same thickness. Back when I was looking for mine, I had not been able to source these blankets somewhere nearby. Those blankets Matthias linked to are all black, but having the white alternative is worth a lot.

How about a handful of (very lightweight) cotton sheets in white and grey (or light green or whatever) to stick over the cheap black blankets when required? Obviously an extra step to setting up but not a major one? J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J That might be possible, but in those situations where I‘m setting up the blankets at the last moment (which sometimes happens) every step would be a major step. I rarely have a chance to use more than two of these blankets. So if you only had two that would cover a lot of situations and the high price of buying them (e.g.) at NoyzBoyz is less relevant. It’s not like you need to replace them once a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked if they could provide black and white blankets and Mr. Maafi of C&M Umzugslogistik promised to import a batch of b/w blankets. In about three months time they will be available! So, tell everyone! 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Davies Amps CAS Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 On 9 November 2018 at 1:20 PM, Constantin said: Yes, but he was specifically enquiring about Sound blankets in Berlin I introduced sound blankets to the UK in 1991 and since then have sold over 3,000 all over Europe including Berlin and Zurich.) The Chinese manufacturers are a fickle lot and have dropped the black ones in favour of the original blue ones which are well known in the US and Canada as they claim that they sell more blue than they ever did with the black ones. (They even had a spate of only supplying green.) I stock the blue ones and will gladly get a shipping cost to Berlin if I can get the quantity required.

Christian Spaeth Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 If you don't mind them being white you could get a couple of thick but cheap Ikea bedcovers like these: https://www.ikea.com/de/de/catalog/products/70271682/ The heavier the merrier.
