Sound proofing a room is not an easy task. The principle is to use multiple sound absorbing layers on the walls, floor and ceiling and also to eliminate ALL gaps through all layers. A one inch hole throgh a wall will render even the best sound insulation largely ineffective.
The simplest way to reduce sound leakage is to seal all the gaps in the existing walls, floor, ceiling, doors and windows. Gaps around doors and windows are particularly important. While most walls provide a reasonable reduction in sound, internal doors and single glazed widows are weak areas. Adding a second sheet of glass or plastic to a window can help as can a heavier door. However, to get significantly better noise reduction, a second skin is required. Effectively, this is an additional floor, ceiling and walls that is built inside the existing structure. The inner skin must not touch the outer one and the floor will typically sit on neoprene support pads. Mineral wool insulation is used inside the two skins and once again, attention to the details of sealing all gaps is vital.
Do not under estimate the size or cost of this kind of project. Once the second skin is installed and all air gaps have been sealed, some means of ventilation is needed (also silenced to prevent noise transmission) and this will add further cost and complexity. Companies offer specialist services in sound reduction because it is such a complex procedure at times. Before tackling it as a home project, make sure you do a lot of reading beforehand and be sure that the principles are fully understood. A poor installation will never be effective and can prove to be a very expensive mistake.

Placing the Surround Sound System?
Surround sound is designed to bring the movie theater into your living room. Speakers are tragically placed to allow for the movement of sound from left to right and back again. When buying your surround sound speakers, consider where they will be placed. Special hangars may be required to mount speaker to wall surfaces, and you will want to consider some way to hide the speaker wires. If you don' t want speakers hanging on the wall, consider purchasing special stands that will both hide the wires and provide a safe spot for the speakers. Finally, take the time to measure the room so you will know exactly how much speaker wire to purchase or proper installation.
