The apartments were built in 1998, and a penthouse sold for A$22 million (US$16.9 million) in 2015.

But fans at the Nov 2015 event complained the volume at the event was too low to begin with, the newspaper reports.
Residents have long complained about the noise from the venue's outdoor events, despite the area being one of the busiest tourist areas in Sydney.

According to Danny Burtenshaw, a resident at "the Toaster" who spoke to the newspaper, it's not just all mega-rich people who live there that can't stand the noise.
"Only a small proportion of the Bennelong residents are high-profile tall poppies; many are working or retired people trying to enjoy their lives but having to tolerate event noise and unsocial behaviour," Burtenshaw said.
The fine, which is the maximum that can be handed out for noise violations by the state's planning department, could discourage outdoor events at the iconic site.
In November, New Zealand band Crowded House did a series of outdoor events at the site, much to the chagrin of residents in "the Toaster." Not that lead singer Neil Finn cared.

According to a Sydney Opera House spokesperson, the noise violations occurred under a set of conditions, ordevelopment application (DA), that were more than a decade old.
"Last year, the Opera House applied to modify the DA, including the introduction of new and more appropriate procedures to monitor and control sound at Forecourt events. This was approved by the Department of Planning and Environment in October 2016," the spokesperson said.
"The new sound monitoring arrangements have been working well, including during the Crowded House Forecourt performances in November last year, with overwhelmingly positive feedback from patrons.
"The Opera House will continue to host outdoor concerts on the Forecourt in line with the modified DA."
