My older wood frame house sits above a 3 foot crawl space, and I was getting too much sympathetic bass vibration. So, about 6 months ago, I built several baffles for use in my living room. I made the baffles by gluing several "Sonolead" panels to some sections of peg board. I further treated the panels by applying sheets of a constrained layer damping material called "DexDamp" (similar to DynaMat used in cars, but better IMO). All of the materials I bought came from a marine supply company in Seattle called HamiltonJet. They ship worldwide, and you can mailorder from them. You might also find a marine supply store closer to you. I suggest you look at their Web site to explore the various acoustic treatment and damping materials they have.

help me sound proof my dorm room
I live in a dorm room with concrete walls. My problem is that my speakers have a rear bass port and the bass wakes up the girl next door. I can't even listen to music at a normal level without her complaining. Is there any way I can stop the bass waves from being transmitted through the walls? I can't move the system to any other location.
