Hush City Soundproofing

If you think some people are too noisy then wait till you read about some of the loudest animals in the world. A normal human shout is around 70 decibels. Anything above 120 decibels and it becomes physically painful. There are many animals, birds and even insects that can make much louder sounds than that. Sometimes animals use these sounds as mating songs while at other times they use them to scare away rivals. Whatever be the reason, when it comes to making a racket, these... animals are in the top #10 list. See if you can guess them and no cheating haha! I will put one a day starting with: #10: Ranking in at 110db...The Lion: Lions can roar up to 110 db. Their roar can travel for 5 miles. They do so to establish their territory and scare away rival males. They are also thought to roar sometimes to communicate within a pride. A pride of lions can have a huge territory of up to 160 square miles so roaring helps maintain this territory without having to cover the whole distance. Can you guess which animal would be #9?

Sound control is an important factor to consider when creating a music room. When playing music, the sound tends to bounce off of whatever surfaces are in the room, often times creating an echo that distorts the sound quality.
