Usually when i talk about soundproofing rooms on this platform i focus my advice on keeping the noise out.
Keeping sound out of a room.
Get a big shaggy rug if the sound is coming from the apartment below a big plush rug might be all you need to keep the peace and quiet.
I think the easiest option for you is to create an air trap on your back wall.
The bigger the better.
Without tearing down a single wall panel you can become the master of sound instead of allowing it to make you miserable.
Do this by sticking a couple of layers of hessian underlay or just plain old carpet to the wall then hang one or two sheets of carpet or dense underlay.
Right now we turn the tv on very low and sit close to hear it once he s asleep we can turn it back up.
However you may also want to know how you can keep sound inside a room.
Is there a way to sound proof his room so we can watch tv while he is falling asleep.
Although you probably won t be able to keep sound totally in or out of a room or house you can certainly minimize the aural agony for you and your neighbors.
The only other room we can move him to also shares a wall with the tv room.
Keeping sound out of room or keeping sound in a room for a home theater space or music room the objective is to keep the sound in so it doesn t travel to other areas of the house.
Egg cartons are good for reducing reverberation inside the room but they don t magically stop sound transmission.
Just make sure it s thick with plenty of sound absorbing fibers.
In the war on unwelcome noise you re not a defenseless victim.
After all lowering the level of noise in my home is one of my own biggest concerns.
Problem is he will stay awake 2 or more hours if he can hear.
