You know - what do I build my wall out of.
Not a full-on studio but a room for playing bassy music.
From everything I understand, I think my question is: For the walls which are external or common to the neighbour's house, how much layered standard sheetrock would give me the same low frequency benefit as MLV? I think from what I've read that you'd definitely not be recommending Quietrock?
I don't want to bore you with all of the constraints I'm under. I know that I've got windows to worry about (which I'll plug when I'm playing), a pretty crap ceiling, and a front door which really needs replacing. I don't mind leakage within the house, as much as to the outside and I'm trying to understand what it's worth doing for those bits that I can address at this time. I could do RC, but I wouldn't be doing it myself and I'm not confident that it would be done with necessary integrity.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
Cheers.
