Ooops. Sorry. I forgot to say, that it is carpet padding. However, it is rubber rather than foam and is very dense and heavy. I tried carpet padding, but the foam did not deaden noise as well as the rubber.

When I started to call around to carpet stores, I was very surprised at how few actually carried it. With some searching, you can find some easily...
