 Wall of Sound - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Beatles' album Let It Be was produced by Phil Spector and is cited as a famous example of his "Wall of Sound".
Wall of Sound is a phrase used to describe the effect created by the music production techniques of legendary record producer Phil Spector.
Wall of Sound also refers to the Grateful Dead's sound amplification and speaker system used until the mid-1970s, as well as the era in which that sound system was used.

 Phil Spector - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The influence of Phil Spector's sound and recording techniques is felt far beyond the recordings he actually produced.
Despite the trend towards multi-channel recording, Spector was also vehemently opposed to stereo releases, claiming that it took control of the record's sound away from the producer in favor of the listener.
To attain this signature sound, Spector gathered large groups of musicians (playing some instruments not generally used for ensemble playing, such as electric and acoustic guitars) playing orchestrated parts — often using many instruments playing in unison — for a fuller sound.

Thus, alone of any rock band, the Dad members are able to mix their own sound balance as they are playing.
The following 1974 article is about the Dead's "new" sound system they were unveiling at the March 23, 1974 concert at the Cow Palace in San Francisco (technically Daly City).
This involves some rather impressive figures: a total of 26,400 MacIntosh watts (RMS) powering 480 speakers (all JBL except for Electro-Voice tweeters) housed in a monolith 30 feet high and attended by, in Wickersham's words, "eigtht uniquely qualified soundmen." The huge number of speakers and extraordinary wattage have only a tangential relationship to sheer volume.

 Re: Interior Wall Sound Control
Also, if you have a second floor above a first floor, one of the best techniques for reducing sound transmission is to combine ceiling insulation with resilient sound isolation channels (called RC-1) running perpendicular to the bottom of the ceiling joist of the first floor.
This specially formulated latex caulking is non-drying and non-hardening, which is important to retain its sound isolation properties for the lifetime of the product.
Sealing all cracks and penetrations (including electrical boxes) with a high quality acoustical caulking -- such as Owens Corning QuietZone Acoustic Caulk -- also helps to keep sound transmission down.
