The noise is usually either footsteps or a subwoofer. His subwoofer was on the floor but was recently raised on top of something. That made things better, but I still feel his bass. Sometimes it seems like my ceiling is like a guitar soundboard. I just read about "soundproof paint". It's very difficult for me to believe that such a thing works, but I've seen misconceptions on the part of people saying it couldn't possibly work. And it's hard finding people who've actually used it. I can make arguments for both why it would work and why it wouldn't work (by "work" I mean reduce the noise perceptibly, even by a small but noticeable amount. I know not to expect huge results.). Can soundproof paint possibly be effective? Even a little? Thanks!
