Oh yeah-yea, I got the same issue...and this damn subwoofer I got dont aid
in the matter.
I havent read the other replies save Eggs but ah---some things absorb the
base frequency better than other things. For example, a couch/sofa or love
seat--large things like a bed and what-have U--absorbs the low end
sound.....but typically what I do is place my speaker on stands or on their
sides. This helps in diverting the natural frequency traveling
downward(obviously the sub and most speakers are designed this way), it
displaces the heavy bass sound I have found.
So place the speakers on their sides, turn your sub off or lower the volume
on it, drop the eq....and get busy fella!
Ach-kay!

Well maybe someone out there has similar problems to me (and solutions). I
live in an apartment that demands a certain level of peace but I listen to
music that is heavy on bass. The problem is not so much the sound itself
but the transfer of vibration to the structure of the building.
The people around me don't complain about the 'noise', it's the people below
me that complain about the vibrations.
In actuality I don't have the muic all that loud but my speakers seem to
transfer the sound directly to the floor and into the apartments below me.
Can anyone suggest something or a method of reducing the sound transfer?
