Should I [36 F] report my neighbours [M and F, 40s-50s] for their loud sex or wait for them to hear my husband [M, 40] and I having sex?

I (36 F) live in a block of flats, everyone has their own house but you can hear your neighbours quite clearly sometimes. For context, I live in a country where you can be fined for making too much noise, I was once warned for it by a police officer after a neighbour complained but it was a one-off thing and I’m not sure how much it’d be taken into account but anyway, there was this couple who moved in next door and I’d hear them having sex VERY loudly. And I thought well, nothing wrong with that, I’d also do it if my husband was around. But I’ve been alone this whole time and they’ve been having sex very loudly and with the neighbours on the other side, it’s a family, they’re not home during the day when they’re making the most noise. It’s annoying but I’d also feel like a Karen to call the police on them, maybe it also bothers me because I haven’t had sex for a while but anyway, I don’t have much against them and I’d feel bad ruining their fun but I’d also like to have some peace. And I thought maybe I could wait until my husband comes back home and we’d have sex even louder and I’d see how they like it. That would be a petty move of me but it would be an eye for an eye, right? It would also be a lie to say I couldn’t care less, I’m definitely annoyed, not to the point of calling the police but I’m annoyed.
