Hello!!

I recently moved out from my parent house to my own apartment, and of course I took my hifi system with me ;). Current setup: Dali Oberon 7, Nad C638 (+BLUOS 2I-MODULE) and a BOWERS & WILKINS ASW608 subwoofer.

I’ve had to leave my subwoofer behind because of complaining neighbors. Even without the sub they’re complaining. Is there anything you can du about this? (I can’t really change the positions of the speakers, at least not more then a couple of cm). I have some money over for ‘‘sound proofing’’ the room, or potentially changing to tower speakers to reduce the noise leaking in to my neighbors apartment, what can I do?? I’m sitting about 4 meters from the speakers.

I’m a 22yo student and pretty new to the whole Audiophile scene. Would appreciate any tips and tricks from a cunning veteran.

    I’m not necessarily a veteran but here’s my 2 cents.

    I would do some sound proofing, maybe buy a large floor rug, and definitely abide by any “quiet hours” rules from your apartment.

    You already removed your subwoofer, so doing the other above mentioned things you will have done your due diligence IMO. If the neighbor still complains then I believe that would no longer be your problem :p

    Edit: Also that is a bad ass looking system OP!
