Soundproofing basement ceiling..

If your using the basic wire to hang the ceilings frame, add some type of mass like rubber to each wire. These carry a lot of sound vibration, sort of like the "string and can" phone. Experiment by just tapping on the wire, and clamp something on them that stops as much vibration noise as possible. I don't know if there is any commercial product for this. A friend even used lead fishing weights to help.
