Jim Thompson, owner of high-end speaker manufacturer EgglestonWorks, has a listening room that rests on a layer of rubber and has extra-thick walls to cancel out sounds. The new Central Station Hotel will feature a similarly designed room, where guests can soak up Memphis music. (Patrick Lantrip/Daily Memphian)
