Shred, no room where you're at??? 

Reason I ask is...I'm going to put in a prefab garage on a slab and insulate it.  Probably build a loft and a kitchenette in there too.  All my music/studio stuff and my motorcycles and my girlfriend will go in there.  That way the wife won't have to look at us when we get cute.  Ain't I a nice man?

Just kidding about the girlfriend.  Have you ever seen my wife?  She's much prettier that my girlfriend.

I'm not helping, am I?  BWAAAH HAAA HAA!

JJ

Edited to say you're really running up the numbers...good for you.

Shred, You are a maniac! Got to give you bonus points for the lengths you're willing to go to! LMAO..You don't want to hear it BUT headphones are the way to go..Wireless, and now they have Blue Tooth....Get an I-Pod if you don't have one and BOOM..You're mobile...Jimmy only plays for certain hrs when he knows my Mom is awake. After 10pm here, EVERYTHING is by headphones. The best sound possible in my opinion. Or, you could do what my friend in N.C. did..He built a "Manroom"...I could live in it..Cherry wood, bathroom, kitchen, widescreen, stereo to die for, pool table and bar..and he's a bachelor! Oh, he added a pool this year..I'll see him on the cruise and ask if he wants a roommate part-time! lol           Sister Cate

Re: What other options do I have...HELP ME

how about those noise cancelling headphones by Bose....for Deb
other than that If you have room on your property build something soundproof,make it a recreation room.
