I am finally getting to finish flooring on my basement project and I had a few quick questions.
First some background. I have 1" XPS insulation against the concrete floor with 5/8" OSB on top of that. Half of the space will be laminate or cork flooring and the other half will be carpet.
I was just wondering what type of underlayment I should put down under the cork/laminate? I assume something WITHOUT a vapor barrior? Am I right? I was thinking I would use this foam underlayment.

I am also assuming I don't want any type of carpet pad that has a vapor barrier. Is this also correct? I was just planning on getting basic carpet pad.
Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
