Cancelling noise during sleep?

[Scorpion Ghost]

Thanks guys. I’ll look into it. The noise has eased up a bit and hopefully stays this way.


Final verdict : become either a murderer or an alcoholic.

I vote alcoholic... unless you can get away with it

Can you use glass doors to prevent noises?

I'm using the classic 3M washable orange silicone earplugs

Noob question. Does glass really cancel sound more than wood?

I use these for quite some time.

Costs like $0.80 a pair. I go through a pair/week. After a while, they get soft and aren't as efficient.

But it blocks everything, even my dog which eats at 4 AM very loudly.

But seriously, have a talk with them.
Or hire a bouncer to have a talk with them and pretend he's their neighbor and can't sleep, as he's training for his MMA fight. Should work wonders.
Or call the police and tell them you heard gunshots at their place. Should calm their ass down.

A lot of possibilities.

Would ear muffs work for this purpose? On that note, have sleep masks helped you in anyway?

i was in this situation for a while, and anything like mufflers, ear tampons, etc was super uncomfortable to sleep with. i would wake up tired and with my ears hurting. what worked for me was rain noises. i would put on my cellphone one of those 8 hours rain noises videos at a volume where it would more or less block the external noise.

this is the one i use, it has the perfect mix of rain with a bit of thunder, and it sounds more or less natural. also 9 hours.
i now cant sleep well without rain noises. give it a fair chance, i highly recommend it.

Hmm?

 

[JavascriptPufferfish]

Hmm?

...this may have not been the best translation. ear plugs? still sounds wrong

@Yes. Glass blocks more sound than wood. Wood is good at sound absorption and not sound blocking. Standard double glazed glass has an STC (sound transmission class) rating between 38-42. An stc value above 35 is considered good for soundproofing.

And yes, sound absorption and blocking are different. Absorption is used to reduce echo.

Make noise sexually abuse you, then reddit will cancel it.
