I hate thin walls in apartments. She can minimize sound bleeding by putting something absorbent on the walls--either acoustic foam, blankets, decorative quilts, or tapestries.


That's an interesting idea, I wonder how many people actually do something like this for their apartment. I can't imagine a lot of acoustic foam would look good to most people. The decorative stuff sounds good, but would it work well enough to make a large difference? I kind of wish I had tried something like this though, back when I lived in an apartment. I quickly gave up playing music loudly, with the exception of listening through headphones.



Yes, acoustic foam is not the prettiest wall covering. However, it is far more effective than my other suggestions (although they will certainly help), so it just depends on where people opt to compromise on aesthetics versus efficacy.
