Most houses down here in the US have full basements, it is not unusual. I guess I thought Canada was the same? Florida and other southern states are different as the water table is so high and the soil is different.

In regards to sound transmission, I'm sure the folks in our development can still hear the loww bass from my 3 Axiom subs when I crank things up, but not as much as my wife and kids upstairs.
