  Invest in quality headphones. Play it as loud as  desired
context: Playing music in an apartment doesn’t automatically mean they have it cranked up to the highest level. I have music going most of the time in my apartment and it’s kept at the level that a television would be at: loud enough for me to hear it but nowhere near blaring. >
  
  Which is totally reasonable, I have no issue with music and I love it. It’s when your in an apartment and play bass literally every day, it’s really not hard to have a bit of respect for your neighbours >
  
  I have a feeling you must come from a country where having a house is normal.
  Where I'm from pretty much everyone lives in apartments and living in an apartment doesn't mean you suddenly live differently somehow. People still have parties, still listen to music, practice instruments, babies cry. Just normal life stuff. 
  A lot of apartments do tend to have pretty solid sound insulation so it's not usually a bother.
  And alternative opinion is that if you live in a city, get used to the noise. >
  
  This is a good point. Lived in a city, you have to learn the art of not fixating on noise. It's like a discipline. 
  Op is clearly not fit for it >
  
  I completely understand what you mean when people play obnoxiously loud music with no regard for their neighbours. I have no problem with you playing your music in your apartment, but it would be appreciated if you kept the noise to a reasonable level. That being said, I don’t particularly agree with the point of listening to your music in your car. It can be quite expensive to get decent car speakers, from what I’ve seen. Some people also cannot get a drivers license/car because of medical reasons, financial reasons, etc. Other than that, I agree with your point on being more respectful! >
  
  In the UK there are people that live in blocks of flats and blast their music as loud as they can and have all the windows wide open so everyone has to listen to their shit music.
  Can imagine the people who live there must hate these dickheads >
  
  Yes, we have those in Brazil. I'm especially impressed by the ones that actually point their speakers out the window. Why???? >
  
  Cause you've gotta show everybody how cool your music is lol. >
  
  I kinda agree with the op that you can’t say this a popular opinion, because I believe most of you do this unknowingly with how common it is. >
  
  The subwoofer is not the problem it’s how loud they have it, a properly tuned sound system most notes will reach the same distance at the same loudness 
  Though bass notes to carry it would be something easy to tune out and non disruptive >
  
  This is only unpopular among the trash. People with sense know not to disturb the peace. >
  
  Scumbags be scumbaggin. This is definitely not an unpopular opinion though. >
  
  Wow, what a crappy opinion on so many levels. Like, first off, if everyone hopped in a car every time they wanted to listen to music, do you know how much fuel would be burnt? Fossil fuel emissions, costs, there's just SO many problems with that. Second, I guess nobody without a car can listen to music anymore? Believe it or not, plenty of responsible adults don't own cars. Third, telling people they don't have the ability to do what they want to INSIDE THEIR OWN HOMES is just black hole-level dense. If it's in the early morning or late at night then I'd agree, have a little courtesy for people who have jobs and responsibilities and need to sleep. But to not be able to play music or use a subwoofer at all? That's excessive. >
  
  This is a dumb take, cause you are playing music ON THEIR HOME. Thats the whole fucking point, that you have the music so loud that you activily fuck up another persons house.
  How to easily check if you are an asshole:
  -if everyone in the building would have the music as loud as you, would you still be able to hear yours? If the answer is no, then you are an asshole >
  
  That's an unrealistic standard for most apartments since you can usually hear stereos and TVs that are being played at normal listening volume. Everyone would be forced to always watch TV at a level below what they can reasonably hear, which is just completely self-defeating. Here's a novel idea: if your neighbor is playing something at a level that's bothering you then ask them to turn it down, bonus points if you give them a time frame when you won't be around and it's acceptable for them to play as loud as they want. Just flat-out telling people that they can never listen to loud music in their own home ever is as intrusive as playing loud music when it's bothersome to other people. >
  
  Legit had to shell out for an 80W Bluetooth speaker just to fight back because both themselves and my landlord didn't give a shit, so yeah fuck inconsiderate neighbours. >
  
  I used to know a narcissist who, upon receiving complaints from his downstairs neighbors that his music was too loud, would put his subwoofers on the floor face-down, blast Rammstein through them at full-blast, and post videos on his Twitter of him doing it with a smile on his face.
  That being said, not everyone does this. And ones that do would probably turn it down or use headphones if you ask >
  
  Subwoofers are also for movies though, but yeah I agree. If you live in an apartment you should show have some level of respect for your neighbors and not blast that shit at inappropriate hours. >
  
  What's wrong with wanting to listen to music in your apartment? >
  
  What are you talking about?! This is a lousy fucking opinion
  … cuz it’s an awesome fucking fact. Well done bro! >
  
  "I'm 44 years old, blasting music, I'm having so much seggs every night with hot women, stop being a loser. Dude bro man I have all the seggs you clearly having no intercourse hahaha"
  -dude blasting shitty music in apartment >
  
  THIS. My upstairs neighbor BLASTS rap from 12 AM to 5 AM almost every night. I cannot tune it out no matter how hard I try and my husband and baby sleep through it. I've contacted management, security, AND the police and nothing has been done about it. >
  
  We have a subwoofer and blast music. But our building is like all brick and not much gets through. >
  
  It's definitely annoying and I can't empathise with those who do it.
  I personally love loud music, it can be really fun and get me energised. I also live in an apartment building. However, I can just use headphones; I've got some fairly inexpensive wireless ones and the sound quality is probably better than with a lot of regular speakers AND its not at the expense of my neighbours.
  Who made the rule saying that living in an apartment means you HAVE to have noise disruptions? Why can't we all just try and be considerate and help each other out. It seems like the only people that believe that apartments "always have and will be noisy" are the ones that make them like that and benefit from it...
  It is slightly satisfying however, knowing that these people are likely selfish and impulsive in other areas of their lives and that they're probably suffering the consequences of those actions.
  It's just no fun to wake up at 11am on a Saturday to someone else's music blasting through your entire apartment, especially when there is a reasonable alternative; although that's not to say that other people don't have bigger problems - it is just straight up selfish. >
  
  That was my experience when I went to college for a couple semesters.  Just the insane noise of music all the time.  It completely ruined the whole experience of trying to get a higher education.
