I'm currently finishing my basement. Attached is the floorplan. Attachment 129062
I've done research on sound control, and want to keep noise from the basement from being too disturbing to those upstairs.
I had a plan to do double drywall ceiling with green glue and unfaced R-19 insulation between the joists. This would only be above the theater/pool table area though. I'm not too concerned with noise traveling to other rooms downstairs, although I'll probably stuff the walls with unfaced R-11 between the rooms. I'd like to keep the area above the bedroom quiet though - as it is another bedroom.
My concerns are related to the "openness" of the floorplan. Will I be able to significantly reduce noise for those upstairs? Should I consider doing double drywall/green glue on the walls to the adjoining rooms too? What about the clips to decouple drywall from the studs - is that overkill considering my layout?
Thanks!
