&$%#@ Neighbors

[Tom Snyder]

Spent the first night in our new place.

The home theatre system just rocked... thunderous bass!

Unfortunately, the new place is a temporary apartment as our old house sold before our new one was done. :mad:

The home theater system belongs to a neighbor on the other side of our bedroom wall.   :bang:

And the thunderous bass was at 3:30 AM...  :Shoot:

I'm not liking this very much...

There are a couple of potential solutions:

1. Talk to the new, temporary neighbor and see if they are reasonable.  (Thunderous bass at 3:30 am is NOT reasonable, even for an enthusiast.)

2. If that's what's going on at 3:30 AM, I bet the neighbor wouldn't want to hear your system thundering at 7:30 AM.  (If you need extra thunder, I bet you could find enough volunteers on this forum to provide loaner equipment for this worthwhile project.)  I'm picturing a line of subwoofers ( strategically placed against the offender's wall.  Pop on The Phantom Menace or a hi-rez recording of organ music and you could probably get your point across in less than ten seconds.

Personally, I'd try #1 first and if it didn't work out, I'd fantasize about #2.

Get a baseball bat, 5 cinderblocks, one more person, and give me a call.
