Yeah, if they don’t care or realise that they’re shagging to loud, they aren’t going to realise if they’re told subtlety.

Stay respectfully, forget subtly. Say it like it is.

Agreed. I wouldn’t interrupt their fun, but I’d mention it to my dad some time when the girlfriend wasn’t around. I’d send an email or text if I felt too embarrassed/shy to say anything face-to-face. “Hey, Dad. Just FYI the walls are really thin in this apartment and I can hear what you two get up to.”
I’d also look into earplugs. Earplugs + bone conductive headphones could be a good work around. I’m a fan of Shokz, but other brands exist.

In fact asking dad to buy new headphones could be a way to transition into that conversation.
“Hey, dad, will you buy me these?”
“Um…why?”
“11 and 6 dad. I need them for 11 and 6. Y’all ain’t subtle.”

This is the best answer in the thread. Add in eye contact and eyebrow gesture.
