How To Soundproof A Wall

Need soundproof .... ASAP!?

Help! Mobile IM on my new apartment, and today my neighboor confronted me and told me that he is a sex therapist? (idk if its right in writing) notice that the wall connects its n my flat is in his room and kids room, said that since I have children who doesn't want to hear anything, because their customers always come over and becomes a little unpleasant. Both entered into an agreement that we would find a way to soundproof walls and therefore pay for it ... How do we do?

Add another layer of plaster from the existing wall ... actually have a dampening effect of sound waves for good luck ..

Sound insulation of a wall apt in New York?

Has anyone did it? How much and how can I do? I know that the price depends on the job, but just to get a ballpark figure. Thx!

I'm intrigued ... its neighbors are very noisy ... or you're tired of noisy neighbors complain? I've heard of people filled with polystyrene walls for noise ... receiving polystyrene trays, shallow food comes in and paste them all over the wall ... I've never tried it myself, but would take a lot of them can not help with cost as I am in Europe, U.S.

Description

The Sonic Barrier 1" acoustic damping foam is a precisely engineered material that offers optimum absorption for its thickness. The material features our exclusive embossed surface finish that helps to trap acoustic energy and improve high frequency performance. This finish is applied to an acoustic-grade open-cell polyether foam, which absorbs and converts the acoustic energy into low-level heat. A very aggressive pressure sensitive adhesive provides easy and permanent installation onto any surface. The Sonic Barrier 1" foam is excellent for general loudspeaker cabinet use. The non-composite nature of this material means that it acts as a sound absorbent across a wide range of frequencies. For situations where the cabinet walls are already acoustically dead, composite barriers may not be necessary-- in this case, the pure foam material can offer a lower-cost alternative with minimal difference in performance. The foam will help absorb unwanted sound from within the cabinet without disrupting airflow between the driver and port. This can reduce unwanted sound reflections and prevent them from exiting through the cone or port. The foam can cause an increase in apparent volume, which can help to offset the space taken up by the driver or the port. Sold in 18" x 24" Sheets
