I know the title says "sound proofing", but in the OP's post she says "dampen the noise" which I believe you can do to an extent with fabrics. When we redid our family room (new paint, new furniture, the whole 9 yards) I noticed a bit of an echo. I hung curtains on the window and the French doors, a quilt on one wall, and draped another quilt on the couch. It helped quite a bit with the echo.
