got most of the kit in place now, but one minor issue remains if I plan to do radio shows later in the evening. my speakers are the 2 x JBL control 1s and also 2 generic “small PA” speakers with 10″ woofer for a bit of extra bass. (I deliberately picked these smaller ones rather than a wall full of Celestion’s finest…) I’m lucky enough to have a end house and the room I use for AV stuff is on the side with no neighbours, but there is of course a point where if I crank it up loud enough there will be a potential noise nuisance to the neighbours. Although I can of course switch to the small JBLs alone late at night, these still can make quite a racket. Plus I work long hours so its not often for me to only have the night time to do music stuff.

most of the sound leaks through the door frame. Other than using something like a draught excluder to stop up a gap of 10mm below my door, are there any other easy ways of keeping the noise inside this room as much as possible? I’ve seen some (pricey) things in the CPC catalogue but I think they are more for stopping echo etc in large places when producing or recording instruments using microphones…
