I'm in the process of finishing my basement. I want a sound barrier to prevent as much sound as possible from leaking to the upstairs. At this point, I'm not so much concerned with controlling the acoustics for recording. My main goal is to be able to strum the guitar and sing or listen to the stereo at a decent level without bothering anyone.
The room is ~12ft x 20ft. My plan is to:
1. Put Roxul up in the ceiling joists.
2. Put in a drop tile ceiling with ceiling caps to lay on top of each one. These things - https://imgur.com/VEPOBKu
3. Use sound barrier blanket or something on the door/wall that will eventually be there.
The other side of the long wall is a garage.
So, what does anyone think of this plan? Some guidance or suggestions would be much appreciated. My budget solely for "soundproofing" is ~$1500 -$2000.
Crappy pics but here are a couple angles of the room:
