Having trouble with sound deadening


My theater is in the basement and I have A LOT of soundproofing. It works well for mids and highs, but the bass still shakes the room upstairs. The structure of the home is transferring the bass. Is there any way to deaden the structure of the house?
Thanks

Yes, if the room is finished with sheetrock you remove the sheeetrock and extend it away from the studs with absorbing material instead of screwing the sheetrock directly to the studs.

The more absorbing material you have the higher you have to turn up the volume and the higher you turn up the volume the more absorbing material you will need.
