You have to wonder, if Ensolite is  and used in sports equipment because it's non-porus (impact and water resistant), it's not likely to take on sound. Absorption implies the material has to "take on" sound. The cells are closed. Only thing it can possibly do is diffuse a wave. Absorption is not diffusion, even though all absorbers diffuse - it's just that diffusers are lousy absorbers [think "deflex" pad].No. That's not the purpose of the foam in that instance. Really nothing is absorbed in a decoupled barrier, it's refracted [fine, say "blocked"].Ensolite = shoulder pad, bike pad, etc. Maxi Pad? No.</blockquote>
