How can you do it? For starters, it's important to know that a room can be sound treated before or after it has been built. Obviously, the best choice would be to incorporate proper sound isolation and acoustical properties into a room as it is being built, but fortunately there are also solutions for rooms after they have been completed.

Below are a few examples of acoustical treatments and room isolation options:

Barrier Materials: Today's barrier materials are designed to keep sound in a room, while at the same time creating wonderful acoustical properties.

Floor Isolators: A great home theater room will always have a great subwoofer. Installing floor isolators will give power to your subwoofer, not only enhancing the "punch," but also isolating vibrations that can take away from your listening enjoyment.

Acoustical foam: Foam is commonly used for sound absorption in areas that do not have aesthetic consideration, such as wall enclosures, entertainment units and behind theater screens.

Acoustic Panels: Sound and acoustical controls for rooms that cannot be redesigned take form as panels that attach to the walls. They look great and function unobtrusively.
