Metal from what I can tell.
We are already in the process of getting carpet with good underlay fitted in the bedroom (currently bare floorboards) so I’m hoping that helps alot.
However getting insulation in the wall might be smart to do pre-carpet now i think about it

I'd ask them to stick a matt under the tv stand and see if that helps to decouple things a bit. I've notice with my vitsoe shelving on plasterboard that it is very 'noisy' - tapping one shelf transmits the noise through the whole thing and in to the next room.

We immediately insulated the floor as soon as we move in and live in the small bedroom for now, as there’s no point doing anything until the major stuff done, if you’re thinking of doing it, get it sorted sooner than later as it will make a big difference and it’s one box that’s been ticked.
@frankohara some before picture; it’s hung like this, ideally to ensure airflow under the insulation to prevent/reduce damp.
We do use a local guys however he’s fully booked until February! But it’s something a decent handyperson can do.

This could be a bastard to sort because the sound might be traveling up and through the ceiling or floors.
Fitting insulated plasterboard might sort it, but no guarantee.
Do they have the TV on one of the metal shelf, or a wooden cabinet ? If it's on a metal shelf I reckon that would make it much worse, as they have very little mass to act as damping.
