But then you are being a dick. Obviously I am assuming they aren't too aggressive but just arrogant and wouldn't go out of their way to do anything. However, I don't know all the information.Obviously OP must tailor my advice to his exact situation, but contacting a higher authority is the best approach if being reasonable is absolutely not an option.

I had a problem with this my freshman year. Basically Id just go into my neighbors room (we shared a bathroom) and just yell at them. And tell them to cut it out.

I didnt want to be angry, but it was inevitable. I had complained to them in the past that I dont appreciate dubstep at 3 am.

Eventually I just started complaining to the management. If I was you OP Id complain to the police. Noise complaints, and unresponsive jerks are both part of their job.

Freshman year, I once painted the tip of my airsoft rifle black instead of orange. I went downstairs to the dorm below me that was blasting the music and banged on the door, fake gun in hand. I told the dude (black) I'd shoot him if he didn't cut it out. He got all "ape" on me and started talking shit and threatening.
About 2 minutes of this later, I produced a blunt from my pocket (prepared beforehand) and asked if we could talk about it. We did, I learned he was an econ major from my home town. We smoked, relaxed, joked a bit, and he agreed to keep it lower.

I didn't feel any bass ever again nor did I hear anything at ungodly hours.
Everything went better than expected.

OP here

These are all excellent a suggestions (excepted for the retarded ones) but I'm looking for something along the lines of either turning off the music without them knowing it was me or some possible way to conceal the noise from coming into my room.

yes, I'm in a dorm
yes they're in the other room
yes they're unreasonable faggots

OP you're such a pussy, just go talk to them. Seriously how would you feel if someone cut your power without even talking to you about it first? You would think "what an asshole". You would be right. Don't be an asshole just because you're scared. Go talk to them. At least try to act like an adult before you get all passive aggressive.

Just because they are unreasonable in your opinion doesnt justify anything.

The police arent likely to just go "Your neighor Carl complained" they understand the risk that puts you in. Not to suggest they cant put 2 and 2 together, but I think that is just a consequence you will have to live with.

Just kick their ass that much harder if they ever mess with you.

>prevent them from beating my ass
I'm guessing you've never been in a fight, because you think an ass beating is the worst and scariest thing EVER, and you seem to have a distorted concept of what will provoke an ass beating.

Just do what you think is right, and if they come after you, defend yourself as well as you can. That's what a real man would do.

I dunno about you guys, but when fuses blow in my apartment complex, my first thought isn't "THOSE FUCKERS DID IT ON PURPOSE!" it's "Do you ~HAVE~ to have ~ALL~ your electronics going at once?"

A fuse blowing is not something that is regularly attributed to Malice, ESPECIALLY if they've got speakers and everything else going.

Get their names and report them to
1. The dorm security
2. School authorities at the college you are paying money to
3. The police

You can also use psychology. Print up an official looking sign that says something like: By Orders of (authority) the occupants of this room must vacate this building by (date), and tape it on their door.

Or put a Health Dept sign saying Quarantine for Avian Flu or some shit.
