Dividing Wall 
A friend and I are planning on building a dividing wall in his basement to create an extra room. The basement is mostly used as a rec room and is usually pretty noisy because of it. I was wondering if you could recommend an affordable type of insulation that will act as a good sound barrier so we can shield the new room from some of that noise.

Re: Dividing Wall 
Fiberglass batt insulation (look for some especially rated for noise insulation) works well. You can use it in combination with some building techniques, such as framing the wall with 2x4's that don't go all the way through to the other side. Also one side of the wall can have a double layer of sheet rock for added sound barrier effectiveness.
