Present room emission limits of fixed equipment noise transmitted by structures are considered incapable to predict subjective perception rationally. In this study, white noise of 31.5 ~ 500 Hz octave bands through filtration is adjusted to the sound pressure levels (SPL) of standard limits to form the original sound samples. New sound samples are produced by moderately adjusting the SPL of these 5 octave bands. Subjective annoyance tests are carried out using paired comparison method. The results indicate that, under the condition of equal A-weighted SPL or equal loudness levels, the new sound samples, whose SPL of 31.5 Hz and 63 Hz octave bands are reduced and SPL of 125 Hz and 250 Hz and 500 Hz octave bands are increased, are less annoying than the original sound samples. There is a significant correlation between SPL of 31.5 Hz octave band and the subjective annoyance rating (p < 0.01), and Pearson’s correlation coefficient is 0.925 ~ 0.951.
