Reply to comment by Traditional-Camera-4 in Does anyone see any specific things I did wrong in this basement floor plan? by Traditional-Camera-4

Consider mineral wool insulation too. I can rock my dual SVS PB2000 pros in my basement theater while my kids sleep upstairs.

I used thermafiber ultrabatt and it's amazing!

Thank you for the suggestion! I haven't researched the insulation yet so I'll take a look at that. What other soundproofing do you have? This is new to me so all I can do is look up STC ratings online and cross my fingers that what I'm doing is correct.

I did the Thermafiber but also wrapped my hvac above that area with butyl tape to reduce vibration transfer (think dynamat). The main run that goes above the theater area and up to the bedroom empties out next to the wife's side of the bed and she slept thru Black Hawk Down Saturday night.
