I've had a neighbor complain about bass leaking from my theater room. My outside wall is of 2 x 6 construction and insulated. All
the walls in the theater room are insulated.

Bass on sound tracks still leaks through enough for the neighbor I'm closest to complain. He has glass windows facing me and I have no windows in the theater.

So, I'm wondering what else I can do. My house is sited. Do you guys think that a brick wall the length of the room, 20'x 14', would do? Maybe cinder block? Would the wall have to touch the house, or could it be a foot away?

I need some help on this. I don't want to go to all that trouble and then find out it doesn't work.
