Recommend methods to reduce the noise the p1s makes. I currently have 3 of these in a spare bedroom with my neighbours bedroom being on the other side of the wall which he is not too happy with.
 
I use a paving slab on top of a foam mat on top of some foam underlay for both my P1S and Core One. Really reduces the noise that resonates through desk tops, wooden shelves etc.

Highly recommend concrete slab - also check out either the BL vibration feet you can buy off their site or Makerworld to print your own from tpu!

The combination makes a big difference!
 
Heavy base (slab, as mentioned), reduce the speed, regular calibration, tell the neighbour to get a grip. In that order.
 
I've got 2 different types of foam floor mat under my printer, cos that's what I had to hand, it does help, also run the printer in 'quiet' mode if I need to.

lol I just got mine earlier and it really is noisy! At work where we also have one it can't be noticed but at my place, boy I need to do something!
