You could definitely annoy the neighbors in most appartment settings.

Anyway short and sweet enough bass that my drunk roommate could annoy the neighbors.

These speakers have more than enough power to trouble your neighbors :

I have had this system (and all 6 speakers) annoying neighbors in two different dorm rooms, three different houses and now two different apartments over the last six years

It sounds is very suppressed with the matrix ON.I made these changes and was listening at half base level and half the volume when my neighbor came complaining about his room getting shaken

I have a big Sony receiver set up for full 7.1 in my home theater and this is not in the ball park, so if you want to shake the china out of the cabinet and really annoy the neighbors you need to spend a lot more money.

but it is enough to bother the neighbors without being distorted.

The bass control was particularly nice for me because sometimes my music is heavy on bass, and I don't want to annoy my neighbors

I live in a dorm room and the volume at 1/3 is pleasurable and don't disturb my neighbors.
