They even have the wedges on the floor so you walk on a suspended grid that's like a trampoline and entire room is decoupled from the rest of the building.

Hmm, so let me pull out my expressions-to-dBA chart...
...turns out it depends on context. SPCR, that means around 13dBA. Under "standard market speak", it says 30dBA

Well, I'm pretty sure a concrete room built on springs with giant fiberglass wedges doesn't qualify as "standard market" anything

A super cool quiet room with two guys inside talking.
It felt sort of sacrilegious to me.
They could have at least whispered.
Interesting thing the one guy said about the wedges and their length. I did not know that.
