2. Wall
3. Roof...

Can you please advise.
Tks!
We're really not trying to be evasive, it's just a very complex topic with many variables. For instance, depending on *exactly* what kind of reduction you're looking for you could be look at a couple of extra layers of sheetrock, green glue and some insulation...or you could be building a couple of stud-wall layers, sheetrock, green glue, isolation rails and more. Same goes with the floor, the ceiling and everything else.

Nobody's going to be able to give you all the information you need in a thread like this...there's just too much involved. Rod's book really might be the best starting place for you.
