First you can move the subwoofer really close to you so it doesn't have to play so loud.
I once met a strange person who placed his subwoofer on the couch next to him in his apartment -- so close it didn't have to play very loud and the couch absorbed some bass too.
Next you can locate the subwoofer driver half way between the floor and ceiling to prevent excitation of the first-order axial floor to ceiling standing wave, whose high pressure zone is at the floor, and at the ceiling = perfect to annoy downstairs and upstairs neighbors.
This would work best with an upfiring or downfiring driver.
There would still be plenty of bass output to disturb the neighbors, but at least you wouldn't have a floor to ceiling standing wave potentially resonating with each kick drum hit.
