[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 2818153, member: 14646"] Great point above. Also, as mentioned earlier, nail in some 2X material so it is flush with the drywall in the attic. Basically like an anchor point you would do on walls in the bathroom before the Sheetrock goes up for screwing towel racks/bars to. Do them the same spacing on center as your studs but I'd make them 2x8 minimum as it give you more wiggle room for nailing/scewing the top plate. I would also insulate with some sort of sound deadening between the studs. Whether basic insulation our in combination with a sound deadening Sheetrock I'd do something. [/QUOTE]
