You are not ready for wiring yet. This is a poor use of your floor space, an undocumented isolation requirement and maybe pushing too much into what has the potential to be a nice size/volume of room area. Maybe if you can read over the links that the forum owner and his moderators have presented to you one more time with earnest, get the details that are so required for any building project, and present them with as much detail about the existing space you are in, these guys can go small miracles for ya. But ya gotta give up some of your own time to get some of their time and professional experience...it's a fair trade-off, trust me.:)
ok i re designed it to use the space better and my friend looked at it and added stuff to . sorry i am just 16

is it possible to draw a simple floor plan - no colors etc just very accurate dimensions of the space you have available to use. include all the beams, doors, windows, pipes, ducts, utilities, etc etc so we know where everything is. then describe briefly what you are trying to do with the space? practice? recording? etc. then your planned budget, who will construct it, etc so we understand the level of complexity this can approach.

So depending on what you are actually trying to achieve, the carpet may hay to come up, and the drop ceiling down so you can properly isolate and treat. If isolation isn't a concern, then treating the space should be a reasonable exercise. Step one would be equipping yourself to do some acoustic measurements and see what we're dealing with.
ok no close neighbors so no need to isolate and asked my dad about the celling it is not normal drop celling it is 2" foam board he said it should help some how with the acoustics and how do i get the acoustic measurements :?:
Download the free Room EQ Wizard and follow the detailed setup and test instructions to obtain a measurement of your room. Also, take your biggest speaker system and run some sine sweeps and bass/drum music and measure the sound levels - an inexpensive radio shack meter works quite well plus is compatible with REW. Measure in the room and all around and outside and make notes about the levels. Combined this will tell you how much isolation you have and what types of treatment you will need for that room.
ok thank you for your help. I was splitting the building with some one so now i have the bottom floor too it is a split foyer 24'-32' so one half is one room and other is another room same dimensions if you want you can change my designs any way you want all i want is to have live room vocal booth control room with 8'-5' amp room inside and a small reception area at door can place the lounge and kitchen on bottom half
the challenge is isolation between rooms - and the ceiling will be a pathway between them if you don't address that in the construction.
ok thanks. here is my new design for the space and where in tennessee can i buy rigid fiberglass
