Soundproofing or sound treatment, as they're very different things.
Sound proofing implies that you want to prevent bass frequencies travelling to other rooms, and there's next to nothing you can do about that without extensive and costly building works.
Treating the room for bass build up is another matter. Bookshelves and furniture will help to scatter/absorb higher frequencies, but you need mass to absorb low frequencies. Bass traps are the answer.
If you don't want to buy bass traps, it's probably best to have a look on Youtube for DIY solutions using off the shelf insulation materials. |

Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation. There are several basic ways to reduce sound: increasing the distance between source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using active antinoise sound generators.[1][2]
Acoustic quieting and noise control can be used to limit unwanted noise. Soundproofing can reduce the transmission of unwanted direct sound waves from the source to an involuntary listener through the use of distance and intervening objects in the sound path (see sound transmission class and sound reduction index).
Soundproofing can suppress unwanted indirect sound waves such as reflections that cause echoes and resonances that cause reverberation.
potato, potatoh. who gives a fuck? and yea if you read my thread im looking for budget bass trap options.
