Wooden Floors and Acoustic Insulation

[johnjay]

Hi everyone
I am about to move into a first floor apartment which has a timber floor (chipboard) between me and the ground floor. I want to lay solid Oak flooring, but I am concerned about noise. I have seen two different types of insulation, but I can not find anyone who has used them. The two I am looking at are \\\"Boardwalk\\\" and \\\"Elastilon\\\", two products which work very differently but say they reduce floor noise. Has anyone had any experience of either?
