Diy Question thread

You need to place the Confidence in the corners. It works on pressure changes and the corners are (as T said) where pressure is at a maximum.

The foam type of traps are kind of a contradiction, they work by absorption of particle vibration yet particle velocity is lowest near a boundary (where bass builds up!).

Good work Tenson. I urge anyone going down the route of room treatement to get a basic grasp of pressure versus particle velocity. It will stop you wasting a lot of time on incorrectly selecting/placing treatments.

As already said, foam or mineral wool type absorbers work by converting the particle velocity kinetic energy (i.e. kinetic energy of air molecules as sound wave passes through the medium) into heat due to friction effects in the material.

I think Anex's post has summed up all that needed to be said. I can't see any point in allowing this pointless thread to continue.

Sorry andyoz, Tensen and others who started discussing serious topics. Please start another thread.

Edit: Johnny, attacking the forum administrator and other members (who incidentally are obviously far more educated/experienced in their field) is not particularly clever and is against the AUP and continuation of such behaviour will result in a ban. Please refrain from doing so again.
