As you can see the speakers(SP) aren't on his wall and there is a hall seperating the room and his ajoining wall

shouldnt be a problem then - just try to isolate the speaker mounts from the wall (if it's hollow in any way and not a support wall)
make sure the wall of your studio adjoining the corridor is thick (not stud wall) and the door is a tight fit - that's it really - you are lucky - it's the bass-end that could carry, not mid/tops

Thanks Kilo,
Not quite sure what you mean by isolating the speaker mounts?
the wall the mounts will go onto is an exterior wall... so that should be fine!?
The problem is the wall in the studio/hall is quite thin, sounds flimsy when you tap it (damn modern houses!) the bass is going to ramp straight through that, short of building a fake breeze block wall i'm not sure what to cover it with!?
If i fit draft excluders to the door this should help with the mid/high end leakage right?
thanks again
