Fibreglass insulations is good sound insulation. It isn't used due to
the glass fibres people don't want to breath when left open.

You need to do some actual research, not guess from what your fellow
ignorants have guessed at and told you.

Now you have`been told by me and several others here.



Let us all know when you move out of your mom's basement and get a
girlfriend, ok?



In case I'm answering someone's question, when I put insulation in my
garage walls it "deadened" the room (as you might anticipate).


Soundproofing and sound-treating are two different animals.
Soundproofing: stopping as much sound as possible from leaving the room.
Sound-treating: stopping sound inside a room (or making it sound better).

People will often try to soundproof a room by erroneously using
sound-treatment techniques. They line the walls with all kinds of foam,
packing blankets, carpet, curtains and other sound absorbent/diffusing
materials. This makes for a very dead room inside. (It also explains the
horrible results heard from their recordings, but that's another story.)
But it does virtually nothing to soundproof the room.
