One thing to watch out for as Ouput555 has discovered (the hard way), doubling sheet rock makes for a rigid wall. It helps with sound isolation, obviously, but the more rigid the wall the greater the peaks and nulls in the low frequency. If you do change the dimensions of the room, my advice would be to fur out and use single layer sheetrock with standard bat insulation behind. The 1/2 inches sheet rock is semi-transparent to low frequencies and acts as a capacitor to some degree--thereby reducing the bass problems.
