[quote=Anonymous]Solid core door might help a very small amount. We did this throughout and my wife swears there was no difference in sound transmission, I think there was a little bit. Hard surfaces (hardwood floors) are a big issue. Good size rugs and rug pads can definitely help absorb sound. Unfortunately the MOST effective solutions are the most costly: 1 adding sound damping insulation to the ceiling cavities and select walls and/or adding sound dampening drywall like QuietRock. if you have upstairs bedroom issue like we did the cheapest solution is a white noise machine.
