What would interfere with a neighbours loud stereo noise?

[Kevboy73]

Hi all. I realised most of you love cranking up the volume and listening to the clear notes of your favourite tunes on your sound systems. My problem is so does the students next door but at all hours of the morning. We live in a mature residential area and new tenants have moved in next door to us in a terraced estate. I love loud music as much as the next guy but these guys are blaring everything from novelty songs to the worst dance and rave music I've ever heard at 2, 3 and 4am. My first reaction was to do the same back or get a loan of a huge amp from a friend and blast them out of it. That only turns up the general noise level when our family are trying to sleep and it's not fair on my nice neighbour on the other side of me. There is nobody in the house on the opposite side of the noisy neighbours so I'm the only complainer. One of them is the landlords daughter. (It's actually her grannies house) and he thinks the sun shines out of her a**. Although, I know he was delighted to get her out of the house. The police won't do anything, they say it's a civil matter and neither will the local council as they only look after industrial noise pollution. I'm at my wits end and this is really getting to us. My wife is pregnant, we're both trying to keep a job and the constant blaring means we're hardly sleeping at all and she's already exhausted as it is.

What I'm looking for is something that would interfere with their stereo more or less silently and that I can turn off when their music reaches a reasonable level. The idea is I'd turn this on anytime the music is blaring and turn it off again when the noise level goes back down. Hopefully they'll think there's something wrong with their stereo when they have the volume up full blast and learn to keep it down or else they get interference through the stereo.

I know many different things can interfere with the quality of sound coming from speakers including interference from walls, other electrical equipment and electromagnetic waves. I have been told that a CB radio with the antenna placed against the wall might interfere with the broadcasting from next door. I wondered if anyone here could shed some light on this before I purchase one or if any of you guys could come up with another effective solution? I'd considered putting in sound-proofing but where the joining wall is would make the job quite a big one with no guarantee that it would work as the door frames prevent any decent amount of insulation being applied.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks
