I did the same thing a few years ago, living in an upper floor
apartment. I didn't even use an audiophile system, just laid a box
containing a couple of 12" woofers flat against the floor. Each time
he cranked his up, I cranked mine up. He quieted down, so did I. We
had a bit of a duet going, him playing some sort of rock and me
playing classical.
I won, I guess, because from that day forth I did not hear his stereo
at all.
Lucky for him he got the message the first try, because I was holding my John Philip Sousa album in reserve, with a full hour of Scottish Bagpipers ready to deliver the coup de grace.
