Best Carpet Padding

My wife wants the thick padding but I'm not sure if it's audiophile approved. Any experience with this?

It can be your way of saying, "i love you" :) Besides, there's a larger chance that the thick pad will result in better sound.

If you heavily pad the floor then heavily pad the rest. If your walls and ceilings are reflective why should the floor be inert? Because emphasizing slap-echo is inherently preferable? Or maybe fine tuning comb-filtering for maximum interference is your thing? Less is often-times more, IMHO.
