Question about sound proofing: Home Theater in a townhouse

I recently bought a good quality townhouse which has your typical layer of insulation, a layer of fiberglass fire retardant, and a 5 inch gap of air between me and my neighbor. Anyone with experience living in a similar situation, do you think this is enough sound proofing to avoid a noise complaint from my neighbor? Or should I invest in sound proofing the entire wall?

Put whatever you want on the wall,it will NOT stop deep bass from thumping away next door..Time for a new headphone rig.
