Yes, it will. Just place the mic at the focal point.

Also with your Neighbors, are you keeping their sound out, our your sound in?

I’m trying to keep the sound in, since I have a movie theatre stereo system that is hooked up now, but can still be heard from outside. The room its in is like a guest room, not too furnished or anything.

You need fireproof foam for the walls or cushion behind the drywall. Even a thin layer will work. The sound vibrations transfer through hard surfaces. Try prosoundfoam com

18″ dish won’t boil water? It should but will take awhile to reach boiling. What type of reflective coating were you using, aluminum foil?

ok, im new at all this, can this be used to reflect the sun rays onto a soler panel?.. I hear the Israeli’s have this to power large wattage inverters for hospitals and government buildings…so, will it help or not?…thanks.

kmsdadog – Those are probably not reflecting onto PV panels, this may increase their output, but it will greatly decrease their lifespan.
They are probably collectors focusing on heating some liquid to generate electricity in a turbine or other manner.

But you won’t need to add reflective coating to bounce sound waves. The reflective coating is only needed for solar applications. The bare dish will work perfectly.
