Some retarded people 2 buildings away are having a building party with volume in excess of 100dB in bursts. I measured a constant 86dB on my phone when they were playing it at low volume with sound meter and its become even louder now. The phone still records 90+dB even with all windows closed in the room.
Have closed my ears too with cotton, still its quite loud - infact so loud those doosh doosh beat noises are giving me a headache now. My head seems to be throbbing. :mad:

If i was a genius electronics guy, i would have made one of those electronic guns that fries up the electronics in the amplifier with microwaves or electromagnetic waves. :cat:
What do you guys do to cope with such excessively loud volume coming from outside the house where you cannot hear the person next to you even talk or even hear the tv blasting at full volume?

It seems you are extra sensitive towards noise but what I generally do is go to some friend's house and spend time there
 
cant help it. its like hearing a jet engine revving up near my house. the sound meter hasn't gone below 75dB till now.
Look at the table. Even short term exposure can cause some hearing loss.
Should have got some noise cancellation headgear.
 
It's 11. You can legally call the cops for this issue.
You should do it because your neighbours will not learn otherwise
 
If you are in a society then gather the society people, go there and thrash them verbally before calling the police else as others said call the police.
 
they stopped it at 10:55. quietness is bliss. :)
sound meter registers around 45dB now. Its probably registering air from ceiling fan. i blew air into the microphone when the meter was running and it showed 89dB. so probably these apps work by measuring air pressure coming into microphone.

How much is the dB of the sound that gets blasted in our ears' when you use an IEM ? At normal listening volumes (which i know is subjective).
 
There is not much anyone can do. Every year I have a field time during Ganesh Chaturthi in Hyderabad. Normal dhols and songs are fine. But some people get too excited. They bring out thali and serving spoons (the big ones) and bang the plates. It just gets unbearable.
 
buy a drilling machine and start poking some holes into wood at 2am everyday. people will get scared thinking that someone is trying to cut the window grills for robbery. my point is; hit them psychologically.
another noteworthy point is that its very difficult to point out the source of drilling machine noise.

err. he has mentioned , the epicentre is two buildings away.
so if he does that in an unfamiliar territory , he will sure be busted for burglary for attempting such a prank.
