Drop Ceiling and Subfloor Dampening Options

Drop Ceiling and Subfloor Dampening Options

  • Hello - long time lurker here as my wife and I have been planning a music room for awhile and with the arrival of our firstborn, we now want to move forward so l we have a space for music learning for him.
  • Looking for a reasonable solution to mitigate noise from that room into the upstairs from a split-level “basement”. There is an ample airgap between the upstairs subfloor and the music room with a drop ceiling - about 18” of space. We will have to contend with some HVAC as well. I know soundproofing is not viable without a major overhaul. Just looking for deadening as much as possible with a budget around $1.5k or so.
  • Thanks for amy suggestions. I do not post much - hopefully these bullits are formatting this well.
