I Tested Noise in Christchurch Townhouses (Surprising Results)⎟Ep. 2505

Audio warning: Expect some yelling, singing, and occasional loud moments. Please check your volume, especially if you're listening on headphones.

The internet says townhouse walls are paper-thin ... that you'll hear your neighbours snore, argue, and blast music all night. So we took two decibel meters and two speakers into a brand-new townhouse ... and put it to the test.

In this episode, Ed and Andrew run a real-world sound test. You'll learn:

  • Whether you really can hear your neighbours through a townhouse wall
  • What the soundproofing rules actually require
  • What the decibel meters revealed at every level, from quiet chat to loud music

The verdict? Don't judge a townhouse by the comments section. The walls are a lot quieter than you think.
