Sound Proofing
Free quotes · Open 7am–9pm, 7 days
Your home theatre is your private, secluded escape from the world. It’s a place where you can escape from life’s pressures and responsibilities and immerse yourself in a world of imagination and entertainment. So it makes sense that you want to stop distracting noise from getting into the room. You also don’t want the sound from your private screening disturbing other people in the house who might be working, sleeping or relaxing. The answer lies in sound proofing.
Sound proofing stops external noise from interrupting your home cinema experience and also keeps internal audio from escaping. While it’s difficult to completely stop all sound waves from entering or exiting a closed room, sound proofing effectively achieves a significant amount of noise reduction.
If it’s done the right way, sound proofing really does work. For home sound systems, it helps keep the noise to a minimum and stops the neighbours from complaining. If you’re interested in a multi-room sound system, it helps each member of the household enjoy their own media options in separate rooms without the audio bleeding together. The key to sound proofing success lies in selecting the right products and materials required for the job, in the right quantities.
Whether it’s a home cinema, a home sound system or a multi-room sound system, stopping sound transmission involves working on the walls, floors and ceilings as well as the dynamics of the room itself. Depending on your budget and need, some factors to consider include:
Materials
There are a range of materials that are often used for soundproofing a room including mass-loaded vinyl (MLV), acoustic foam panels, soundproof drywall and green glue.
Sealing
Gaps around doors, windows and vents can be spaces where sound can escape from. But you can seal them with materials like weather stripping, acoustic caulk and soundproofing putty.
Double Layers
Adding an extra layer of material between rooms can help to make the walls more soundproof, especially when you have a multi-room sound system.
Flooring
As well as looking stylish, the right kind of carpeting and rugs for your home cinema can help reduce noise.
Door Selection
Some doors are better at keeping sound out of your room than others, especially solid-core doors.
Soundproof curtains
Dense and heavy curtains not only add to the cinematic atmosphere, they also assist with sound reduction.
Room Design
The layout of the room’s components – the speakers and seating – also plays a part in its acoustics.
The first stage of sound proofing that Home Entertainment Solutions offers is internal acoustic installation, typically added during the construction stage of the home. The second stage is the acoustic wall panels that come in all shapes, sizes and colours. If the house is already built, then we can progress to stage two straight away to improve the acoustics of the room.

“Outstanding cinematic experience”
I recently had Frank from Home Entertainment Solutions complete my dedicated home theatre installation and could not be happier with the result. Frank custom built a frame for my acoustically transparent screen, ran the HDMI cabling, mounted the projector and installed and calibrated my full 7.3.4 home theatre system. Throughout the entire process Frank was knowledgeable, patient and highly professional. What I appreciated most was that he genuinely listened carefully to what I wanted rather than pushing a generic solution. Every aspect of the installation felt thoughtfully tailored to my specific room, equipment and performance goals. The workmanship was excellent, the setup was neat and well executed, and the final calibration delivered an outstanding cinematic experience. It was clear throughout the project that Frank has real experience with dedicated home theatre systems and understands both the technical and practical sides of getting a room performing properly. I would happily recommend Home Entertainment Solutions to anyone looking for a high quality custom home theatre installation.

“10 Stars out of 5”
So glad we went with Home Entertainment Solutions! Francois is very professional and easy to get along with!

We highly recommend Francois and will definitely be getting him back to fit out our garage. 10 stars out 5

“The way he works is amazing”
Unboxed my new 75 inch only to find out that its too big for my TV unit. With 2 kids around I needed to have it wall mounted asap. Francois was able to accomodate me even if it was a bit late at night. The way he works is amazing, you could easily tell that he is an expert on his craft. I definitely recommend Home Entertainment Solutions on all your Audio/Visual Needs
