Budget Insulation Advice


I live in an apartment with relatively thin walls. The only way to avoid neighborly complaints is to play music at a level where my receiver isn't as detailed as I want to hear. Basically I want to know if there's any cheap (read not specifically designed for this purpose) way of insulating the wall. The wall is probably around 125 sq ft and I really don't want to spend more than $200 for the project. Looks aren't important and I don't need to sound-proof just reduce the amount of sound that passes through the wall. Also would you have any recommendations for compensating for the newly 'deadened' room.

You might look at "Sound Studio Construction on a Budget", F. Alton Everest, for ideas. Maybe your local library has it or can get it for you on loan. It's a great book for other aspects of room treatment too, so buying it wouldn't be a waste, even if it offers no workable solution to your problem.
