Hey Y'all,
We built a music studio addition onto the back of our garage. So for so good with the soundproofing except for one problem. Here it is. We have an a/c window unit so the sounds travel right through it into our neighbors back yard. Any suggestions. Thought about building a nice cabinet over it on the inside, but my boys couldn't run the a/c while it was shut. Is there any way to soundproof the outside part of the unit and still run the a/c whenever? Thanks.

No! It will over heat. Must keep back open so it has good air flow.
