Probably.
First, the subwoofer can’t be against a wall that you share with a neighbor. Use it against a wall that’s internal to your apartment (say, the wall between your living room and bedroom). Also, if it’s a side-firing driver, point the driver into the room. Or get a down-firing...
From the link: “Double blind test: I got my kids to change up the wires into the amps headphone output randomly while I wasn't in the room and then I asked them to leave the room in another direction of which I entered the room.”
My family has two 2011 MBPs, both still running strong. In fact, my 2011 MBP runs Windows 10 in dual-boot better than two-year-old (better spec’d) Dell I’m issued for work does!
All I can say is that when I had a product earlier this year that was defective, Apos paid for return shipping and the shipping for the new item. No problem. Also, it's clear on their website that returns in the 15 to 45 day window are subject to a restocking fee.
