Post subject:  How to stop your neighbors boom boom music without calling

the cops.

1st step. get a loud stereo system. 4 1/2' towers with custom 12" sub, 8" woofer, 4" midrange, and 1" tweeter cones nothing smaller. and a 500w or so amp.

2nd step. -and this is key- a jbl 12" 500w powered sub.

3rd step. variation here is allowed, but generally you need hatebreed, devildriver or soulfly.

on saturday morning around 7am, mix all ingredients into a large apartment complex. the 'badass' neighbors are just falling asleep, this is perfect- especially because there are no noise ordinances in effect. turn the volume up just slightly until the candles on your end tables cover your carpet in wax. your mix is just right, keep it there until about noon or until you get bored.

enjoy the following week in peace. you might still hear some music, but take notice how the bass is gone.. and every time some idiot turns it up someone quickly shuts it down :D

there you have it, peaceful weeknights of sleep without leo intervention. im martha stewart and you have been watching hometime with dean martin.

I would just spread dog shit on the bottom part of their door handle so they get a nice surprise when they go to open or close the door. Alternatives include a few tampons with ketchup on it hanging off their car door handles and windshield wipers.

Tell the neighbors that you like to have their window's closed and plug their ears with cotton and then make sure the neighbor you don't like enjoys sleeping in till like 10 and let your kid out there banging on pots and pans or practice her hard shoe dances at say 7 am

:/ while that would be funny it wouldnt get the message across. everyone told me to call the cops. thing is, cops have been called on them before and nothing gets done because what are the cops supposed to do? im the one who moved to a college town.

so i have to be creative. my plan from here forward will be to continue the war. they dont make as much money as i do, so even if they get louder i will too. plan c is walking up there, kicking their door in and throwing their shit out a closed window. and believe me, i have played that out in my mind already. lots.

Do some yardwork outside their window.Image

There is no more annoying noise that this. Especially if they are hungover.

Sadly, most people do not have stereo equipment like that these days. They listen to music through earbuds. They have been convinced that Bose makes a high-end product. We used to have a saying in the speaker business: If you hear no highs and you hear no lows, it must be Bose.

ugh no joke. even my boss says he loves bose. he asks why i dont, as if im crazy, and i tell him i like a natural unprocessed sound. bose is like creative sound cards back in the day. they sound good on shitty speakers, but if you have real cones then you want a real source.

When I think of Bose I think of the 901 which was their flagship back in the day. All those shitty little 4" mid-range drivers. When you have to EQ the shit out of something to get a flat response, the product is designed wrong. Then they came out with the Acoustimass for surround sound systems. Another fucking turd. Finally, anyone who pays $350 for a clock radio should be immediately admitted to an insane asylum.

"but it sounds really good!"

:/ ?

thing is, it doesnt. it sounds like a sony boom box from the 80's. the type of sound that sounds intriguing the first 3 seconds, then you realize you KNOW that song and its not supposed to sound like that.

if i wasnt lazy i would take pics of my eq settings. 0-0-0-0-0-0-0. sometimes i adjust it a little around the 300hz range to compensate for different songs as they are all a little different... but almost always it stays at 0. it helps having 4 way speakers with large cones...

Hey JORR/Ike, did you ever come across those guys who drove around in a whiye van selling shit speakers at OMFG doscount prices? They'd bumrush you at a gas station talkin about how they're high end audio guys qnd an install just went off the tracks and long story short they have premium speakers right here right now cheap.

A friend of mine with disposable cash (his ford probe was "...a show car, dude") bought them and they were just shit speakers made with the craft of a fake rolex.

I was able to say to the guys OMFG I'M GETTING THE WHITE VAN SPEAKER SCAM? Hell yeah lets do this and they just kinda cursed me and sped off from golf/meachem

Yeah, I used to sell piezoelectric tweeters by the thousands to those guys. They put them in cheap ass cabinets made with 1/2" particle board along with a Chinese woofer. Horrible!

I used to see those guys driving around Wheaton/Glen Ellyn/Lombard in the mid and late 90's.

if i buy crappy speakers they better at least have their own tune to them. when cheap speakers are made to have a flat response the result is horrendous.

Just play Bleed by Meshuggah on an infinite loop. That will solve all problems.
