I don't consider it reasonable to expect such level of silence from neighbors that normal singing volume levels would exceed it.

- kansface 6y agoSinging is loud - about the same as a trumpet (80 db).
- balfirevic 6y agoSome singing is loud. Do you consider this too loud for apartment? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKGJyVWRdJM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKGJyVWRdJM
- gfxgirl 6y agoyes, that is too loud for all but one of the 20 or so apartments I've lived in. I once lived in an apartment where the manager told me don't worry about sound including running the washing machine late at night because the walls are double concrete with a gap between to be sound dampening. That's the only apartment that's been quiet. All others it was easy to hear conversations from neighboring apartments including the one I'm in now (T_T)
- balfirevic 6y agoYes, but having poor sound isolation comes with reduced expectation of quietness (during daytime), not expectation of neighbors being whisper quiet.
- r00fus 6y agoSound isolation in older or cheaply designed apartments really sucks. Plus, therapeutic levels for singing probably require something louder than mezzo piano.
