Moving the speakers to the other wall will help however you can greatly reduce the sound transmission through the common wall by screwing 2"x1" timber battens @ 18" centres to the common wall with 1/4" rubber pads between the battens and the wall at the fixing points. Fix 2" fibreglass insulation floor to ceiling between the timber battens and screw/glue 2 sheets of 5/8" (16mm) dense plasterboard one on top of each other, to the timber battens leaving 1/4"-1/2" gaps at both floor and ceiling which you then seal with silicone sealant.
Neighbor Complaining...
I moved recently to a new apartment, and my neighbor is already complaining of the noise... :) Right now I have my speakers (Quad 12L2) placed closed to the shared wall, now, would it make a difference if I place the speakers against the other wall (which is not shared), and facing the shared wall?
Plus, any other tips on how to deal with this would be appreciated as well.
