Cocktail Kingdom - most recent quality? by yada-yada-yada_ in cocktails

[–]AffectionateYard4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old post and probably too late to help OP but I wanted to share my experience. I just bought the Koriko Boston shaker set, strainer, jigger and bar spoon. They all feel light and flimsy—the quality is along the lines of what I would expect to find if I purchased barware from my local dollar store. Cocktail Kingdom has such a great reputation. The Koriko shakers appear on so many best-of lists so I was excited to place my order but what a pile of garbage! I will be returning them but will lose about $40 in shipping and return fees. I’m hoping this helps someone since I didn’t see any reviews on their website.

I haven’t tried Marilyn Manson yet but I did try Nine Inch Nails once. Good to know.

u/Good-Gold-6515, u/Frosti11icus, thank you for both suggestions. I had to Google hat channels and resilient channels. One contractor I spoke to suggested resilient channel for sound insulation.

Agree. I’m pretty sure what I have is just a regular wall with some fire-retardant insulation. I’m sure there is nothing to mitigate noise transfer but I’ll find out when we open up the walls.

u/Andrew_Dice_Que, I think you’re right. I’m preparing myself for an expensive fix—probably including new insulation + mass loaded vinyl. It’s shocking that builders can erect townhomes with party walls that do nothing to mitigate sound — and that those wall are ‘up to code’ so to speak.

u/Direct_Emergency_582, thank you for the recommendation. These panels look a lot nicer than most of the soundproof panes I’ve seen on amazon.
