Sound Proof???


Hello All,

The neighbors are starting to complain. I have neighbors above & below me in an apartment complex.

Is there away to absorb or reflect sound?

Hi 6month,

If you properly decouple the speakers from the floor a great deal of the directly-coupled mechanical vibration now being sent to your neighbors will be reduced. Another benefit is that vibration will not be able to travel through the floor from the speakers towards your audio equipment.

Likely not.

I used to live in a condo and never met my neighbor until I added a sub......... met him 20 minutes later!
when i first bought my system i lived in a small studio with other units all around me,i could not listen to music any louder than normal tv volume,as soon as my lease ran out i found an old wooden house on the river,now i can listen 24/7 without people threatening my life!!life is good!!if i can stop buying audio stuff for a yr or so i could buy a house,,,,,good luck 6 month
If you are going to live in apts for a while what your neighbors are hearing is mostly bass. Get a nice pair of monitor speakers and stands to use and you will be able to listen louder without bothering neighbors......learn to live without bass while in apts.

Also seriously consider getting good headphones and amp for late night/early morning listening.....you will get amazing sound for $1,000 or less total.
