My room has been finished for a few years, but I recently upgraded my speakers. The new speakers are currently wall mounted (previous speakers had stands). The room is fairly quiet even with a single layer of drywall, as long as no speakers touched the wall, but now with the wall mounted speakers (one screw into the framing), the sound is traveling to the floor above. Any advice or ideas to maintain the wall mount feature, but to de-couple the speaker from the wall? If I can drop it even by 10 dB, that'd be great. In searching through posts, some ideas had come up with using neoprene or some other foam (neoprene washers?) between the mount and wall or to add something else (MDF with GG?) between the mount and wall, but no results. The speakers are AG Stradas, so not terribly large or heavy. I'd prefer to not put them on stands to keep the front of the room clear (I have small kids). Tearing down the drywall is a no-go (stands are cheaper).
