There are few things more relaxing than coming home on a Friday afternoon, mixing a nice cocktail, and cranking some truly embarrassing music from your youth on the stereo, at full volume through big speakers.
To pull that off, you need thick skin or thick walls.
That was the entire point of my comment. No matter how loud you crank music on headphones, nothing will fall off the shelves, and you won't feel any bowel-loosening vibration coursing through your body.
That's an essential part of the experience. And if it's happening because of cheezy butt rock from the 80's, you'd best have thick stone walls or live well out in the country.
