My partner and I have been living in our new apartment for a few months now, and we’ve had a recurring issue with our neighbor on the other side of the shared wall. They seem to be incredibly sensitive to noise, and they’ll bang on the wall for the slightest sound.
At first, we thought it was just a matter of thin walls and a lack of tolerance, but things have taken a strange turn.
Recently, I’ve been experimenting a bit by whispering some not-so-friendly phrases when I come home from work or relaxing in the living room with my girlfriend, and almost like clockwork, there’s a loud bang from the other side of the shared wall. It’s got me wondering if my neighbor might be using some sort of microphone setup to monitor noise in our apartment.
Has anyone experienced anything similar, or does anyone have suggestions on what type of microphone could be used in this situation? I’m genuinely curious and a bit puzzled.
Thanks for any input!
We have a neighbor that creates music or some crap. He’s nice and all but he blasts that stuff. We live in a brick building, so don’t hear much unless it’s really loud. Maybe try noise canceling foam pads on the side where they are? It’s not really unattractive…but, maybe it would help relieve some.
