That continual thumping bass is so annoying, I’m with you on that! We have neighbor whose teenager turns the volume up in his truck at night while he and his friends are out in the driveway shooting hoops! Our bedroom is on that side of the house! Fortunately another neighbor complained so the volume is lower. But that almost makes it worse because we can’t hear the music now…just the low thump. The people who deny it, generally already have hearing loss and need the volume up so they can hear it! 🙄.

Then I remember my own daughter and her friends in their teenage years, “If it’s too loud then you’re to old!” 😂

Have you tried leaving a radio or tv on at low volume to mask the noise? There are also apps for phones or small noise cancelling machines that make white noise, back ground calming noises that might also help mask the sound. I know it shouldn’t have to be up to you ask to stop the noise or to take the steps to quell it, but it’s a pretty safe bet your neighbors won’t stop. Have you tried ear plugs at night?

Thank you for responding. I sleep with ear plugs and a fan on high.I can still hear the thump, but at least it is tolerable. Some nights I sleep on the couch with the tv and fan blasting. The bass thump is a low frequency noise that is detriment to one's health, whether a person can hear it or not. There is lots of info regarding how it affects the body.

Are you still hearing it? I agree some people who indulge in this behavior have hearing loss.
I'm still researching clinics throughout the country that specialize in putting an end to any noise misery.
