I've been asked to tile a bathroom floor on top of soundproof flooring (aquastalay) and was wondering if I could tile directly onto this or would it be best to ply the floor before tiling?

Most acoustic matting you can tile straight onto......you need to make sure the floor is load bearing if not ply first then acoustic matting....BAL do an adhesive specifically for tiling to acoustic matting.....

but check for compatibilty first....
