I just roll the foam into cylinder and make it a bass trap working great for my 10R but donno whether enuf or not for SVS

It depends on your current room condition, if it's already filled with lots of furniture and sofas, I guess have absorption panels might just give slight improvements.
I'm not sure about coverage vs absorption factors. but I guess 70bucks is not much to try out with. The foams that I sold previously wasn't that expensive either.

Yes very true that foams will not trap bass. I've tested with different density, hardness, profile cuts, none could really work their way down to 400 effectively.
these traps will actually contain the waves to keep reflecting and weaken them.

I only use these absorption panels on few point where direct sound hits.

For listening room or HT room i guess no one actually pad the entire room with absorption panels, you do need the reflection to create the space and stage i guess.

I'm going to make some like that too, with some additional "stuffs" added on to trap bass better .. I'll show you once it's ready.

Buy a massage chair. Can watch movie while massage. Very siok...

As for cylinder bass trap, why not buy solid cylinder fiberglass. Even easier just need wrapping only.

Interesting. It seems they are quite rigid/hard... would that be a good characteristic for a bass trap?

Important factor to look at is the density and thickness. The higher the density, the better for low bass absorption. I can only find their acoustic absorption factor for semi rigid board. Looks quite similar to Connings Owen rigid board those "ang mor kau" bought for their bass trap.

Hmm... must explore further then.

Only making use of what available on hand

Just bought a pair of PSB Synchrony One

Very nice. Never thought Synchrony would be that tall

wasted on the 12-Q la

Heh, I like how you used the rubber door stop to angle up your FCC2.

Hello Eugene, your room should put in CHT-15Q instead CHT-12Q or SPL1200U
