Ideal for walls and ceilings with only 41mm depth gain
Easy to install and world-class performance
The GenieClip is a very high performance solution that provides the best single component we know when soundproofing a wall. The clip itself outperforms a resilient bar by around 6-7 dB, an impressive amount.
The GenieClip RST is a market-leading acoustic solution designed to deliver high-performance sound isolation for walls and ceilings. With a minimal depth gain of only 41mm, the GenieClip is the ideal choice for projects where space is limited but exceptional noise control is essential. Easy to install and highly effective, this Canadian-engineered product is a superior alternative to traditional resilient bars, offering significant noise reduction and enhanced durability.
The GenieClip system is a superior alternative to the conventional resilient bar system producing better performance and is far less prone to fitting error. In fact its virtually impossible to fit incorrectly.
It significantly improves low frequency sound control performance and this is often the hardest frequency to cope with. Of all the resilient solutions that fix direct to joist it offers the best performance.
What is a GenieClip?
The GenieClip is an advanced sound isolation clip, built with a combination of moulded rubber and steel. Specifically designed to block noise transmission, GenieClip outperforms other resilient solutions and is uniquely constructed to provide top-level soundproofing. It’s a single-component solution suitable for walls and ceilings, and it’s incredibly effective for both residential and commercial soundproofing needs.
How Does the GenieClip Work?
The GenieClip works by isolating vibrations and preventing noise from passing through walls or ceilings. Its design incorporates a moulded rubber body set within a galvanised steel framework, which absorbs sound vibrations and reduces their transmission. The rubber and steel combination acts as a spring, offering superior dampening compared to traditional resilient bars. This design provides excellent noise control, especially for low frequencies, which are typically the hardest to manage.

How Effective are GenieClips at Stopping Nuisance Noise?
GenieClips are exceptionally effective at reducing nuisance noise, especially when it comes to low-frequency sounds like bass and impact noise. Compared to traditional resilient bar systems, GenieClips provide around 6-7 dB better sound reduction, significantly improving sound insulation in treated spaces. This makes them ideal for creating quieter, more comfortable environments in both homes and businesses.
Where Can the GenieClip Be Used?
GenieClips are suitable for use on walls and ceilings, making them a versatile solution for various soundproofing projects. They’re ideal for homes, offices, studios, and multi-tenant buildings where effective sound control is a priority. The low profile of GenieClip also makes it a great choice for projects with space limitations, offering high-level performance without sacrificing valuable space.
How to Install the GenieClip
GenieClip installation is straightforward and suitable for DIY enthusiasts. It involves securing the clips to joists or wall studs, followed by attaching compatible furring strips. Plasterboard is then fixed to the furring strips, creating an isolated soundproofing layer. Unlike traditional resilient bars, GenieClips are highly resilient to fitting errors, making them an ideal choice for both professionals and DIY installers alike.
What are the Benefits of Using the GenieClip?
High-Performance Soundproofing: Outperforms traditional resilient bars by 6-7 dB, providing effective noise isolation.
Efficient Low-Frequency Control: Excels at reducing low-frequency noise, a common challenge in soundproofing.
Minimal Space Impact: Adds only 41mm to the overall wall or ceiling depth, making it ideal for spaces with height restrictions.
Ease of Installation: User-friendly installation with minimal risk of fitting errors.
Durability and Longevity: Built to last, offering consistent performance over time.
Regulation Compliant: Can be integrated into a regulation E compliant soundproofing system.
GenieClip Furring Strips
The Furring Strip is designed specifically to be used with the GenieClip to provide a system which is both economical and gives highly effective sound attenuation.

Don’t forget your GenieClip Furring Strips!
These furring strips are specially designed for use with the GenieClip system, including the LB2 and LB3 systems. As the same GenieClip is used across the three systems the same furring strip can be used, keeping things nice and simple.
Please Note: Other furring strips will not fit the GenieClip system.
I called Soundstop with lots of questions and the person I spoke with was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I ended up purchasing soundproofed plasterboards and genie clip system from them
Two alcoves with independent stud walls built and insulation/clips installed.
The result? It works, was sceptical it would,so it was a gamble, sound reduced from neighbours is 70% less and now feel like our semi detached house is more like a fully detached! I’m glad I did it, took me 2 days in total.
All products for a LB2 soundproof ceiling are as expected and delivered on time. The advice given before ordering and before installation was second to none. The guys at soundstop really care that your project goes well. Can't recommend them enough!
From query to delivery always a pleasure to do business with. Can recommend enough. We have used both the standard and advanced (sbx) sm20 systems and they have both made a huge difference in a mid terraced house.
Soundstop are truly amazing at what they do. As a DIYer I need help and advice lots and the team are always there to help out.
The products themselves are top quality and worth of any recording studio never mind my party wall!
Keep up the good work!
The service from the team at Soundstop has been amazing. Jim advised me in the early stages and took my thinking to an end design which is now installed and working beyond my expectations Thankyou
Soundproofing a wall in a factory by a sandblasting booth
The items I have purchased from soundstop have been very useful in the application used to carry out the job requirements on the job that had to be done, the service from Lucy and Jim have been outstanding would use soundstop and would certainly recommend there services to another company or individual
All-round excellent service. Had a phonecall to confirm order minutes after making it online & had further calls keeping me updated on delivery. Very friendly & were more than happy to give some advice when needed.
Genie clips & bars were simple to install & there's good articles on the website for reference. Haven't heard anything from my neighbours yet!
I'd like to thank the team at Soundstop, they completely exceeded my expectations. The customer service is second to none and the delivery was on time as agreed. Very highly recommended.
I don’t think in nearly 23 years I’ve ever dealt with a company so efficient, knowledgeable and helpful! Delivery was very quick. When I needed some technical assistance, Jim was more than helpful. So much so that I felt I should’ve paid him a consultancy fee! Such a pleasure to do business with Soundshield. Amazing!
Very helpful, in helping us to what we needed to order, to soundproof our wall, it all arrived on time, first class service, will be using them again, Thankyou soundproof, for all your help.
My experience of phoning Soundstop for general help with soundproofing and specific help with their products has been a unique experience. A genuine desire to help backed up with the actual knowledge to be so.
I just wish all support calls could be so fruitful.
We had great telephone support whilst choosing the product. We bought Tecsound 70 which was easy to fit ( following the good instructions ) It is a great product and seems to work well. The carpet fitter was amazed by it and the shop are now interested in knowing more! Would recommend both Stopsound and the product
