Sound proofing floor


I'm in a condo and my downstairs neighbor can hear my music. I'm looking into putting a sound barrier over the cement floor and under the carpet. Has anyone had to do this and can point me toward products I can use?

My first thought, is you must be playing your music way to loud for anything but maybe some bass to pass through 6”-8” of concrete or it’s traveling through the walls. However, my subwoofer used to rattle the windows and AC vents until I bought four washing machine isolation feet from Amazon for like $20 and an 18”X18” piece of floor tile to go on top of my carpeted floor.  Worked like a charm. I did something similar with my speakers. I bought some Isoacoustics Gaia isolation feet and couple pieces of 1” thick granite, also on top of the carpeted floor .  They made a huge difference!
