No. See detail QD1 and QD2 on the Design and Installation Guidelines. The Quietzone™ framed doorframe is stacked next to a regular piece of dimensional lumber acting as the king stud. Do not attach the drywall to the regular dimensional lumber stud as this will provide a path for the sound vibrations and affect the acoustical properties of the wall.
