How Loud???

Yeah, she doesn't say anything about it.
I asked her if it distracts her and she said no but she can hear it.
I've worked through the night many times without any complaints from anyone.




Just she think its tolerable?

Thank you
 
Our bedroom is directly over the garage. One night(11pm) I wanted to apply an AIO to the car. I made it roughly 37seconds before the wife texted me the word "LOUD". This was using my GG on about 4-4.5.
 
So did you stop for the night? Lol

This thread may be old, but I have not seen any of these suggestions sooo OK, time to apply some old school audio tricks. The way houses are made today is cardboard. so sound proof your garage. ceilings are a pain, but options---if you have the $$ have your walls sound proofed by shooting foam in them,,, but for guy who doesn’t want to do that,,, acoustic foam Auralex 2" StudioFoam Wedgies 1'x1'x2" Panels (24 pack) | Musician's Friend covers 96sq feet. around 106 bucks. Apply to ceiling and walls. for floor do what I have seen a few guys here do, cover the floor with the interlocking foam pads you can buy at big lots or home depot,,(look at baby resale shops, it may be multi colored but cheaper) and roll a carpet remnant over it or a big piece of walkway rubber. -cheaper still? Carpet padding and carpet. If you want to go a different rt, you can get area rugs and hang them from the walls. wife might like a nice oriental design they also have planin white ones that wont look out of place. Cheapest still, cardboard drink holders. Anything that will disrupt and absorb the sound wave. That is why old school studios like Sound City (probably the last of its kind and is now gone :( ) had thick pile carpet all over all the walls.
 
High frequency sounds (like what these buffers make) don't travel as well as low frequency sounds. That's why you can always heard the deep bass tones from loud music, and people with deeper voices are easier to hear farther away.

I think, just being reasonable, I can't imagine it being an issue with neighbors. A shared wall is perhaps another story though.

another option becides the wedgies are the bumpy foam mattress pads. The cheapest you can find and put them up.
