I myself was thinking of using the system I see in restaurants. I
don't know what it is called, but it is almost like 2x4x8 length
material that snaps into some sort of track. Anyone familiar with this
product?

I had some lower ducts, put the suspended cieling as high as possible
and let the ducts painted brite whilte hang below the suspended cieling
where necessary.

way better than using the lowest duct as the highest cieling point. it
is after all a finished basement

I made strips 1/2" thick, rough saw on face, planed on back about 2-3/4"
wide, nailed them on bottom of floor joists with finish nails, planed side
to joist, cut 1/2" drywall to fit between and lay on top of strips. Ones
with tight access, under heat duct for instance, I fastened with screws as
there was not enough room to raise panel and tip it to come out. A person I
told about this cut acoustic panels to go between, I may have pict. and
message from that person.
