Is $1,500 to dense pack cellulose insulation between floors a fair price?

Project Details

I have a bedroom in the back of my condo that is typically ~5 degrees colder than my main living area. My partner is also a musician and so we use the room as a practice room too. The building itself is over 100+ yo, and my upstairs neighbors dont have any subfloor - so the sound travels straight through to their unit.
