Do you have soundproofing suggestions?
I live in an apartment building with thin walls, and I can often hear my neighbors' music - has anyone come up with a good soundproofing method to keep out such noise? Any advice is appreciated. :)

1. your own headphones?
I think the soundproofing would actually have to be in THEIR apt - not sure though :shrug:

3. I've been thinking about that - Bose noise-cancelling
headphones are pretty effective, not 100%, but not as expensive as redoing th-e apartment, lol.
