Direct answer
Soundproofing limits sound transfer into or out of a room; acoustic treatment changes how sound behaves inside it. Isolation typically involves mass, airtight construction, decoupling, resilient assemblies, doors, penetrations, and careful HVAC design. Treatment uses absorbers, bass control, diffusion, speaker placement, and calibration to improve decay, clarity, imaging, and consistency. Decorative acoustic panels cannot fix a flanking path through an untreated ceiling or duct, and isolated walls do not guarantee accurate bass inside the theater.
The two disciplines should be designed together before framing and mechanical work. An isolation target also needs realistic expectations: low bass is difficult to contain, and every recessed light, outlet, door, or return can affect performance. CEDIA/CTA RP22 provides a performance-based framework for immersive-audio rooms, including acoustics and system verification.
