The thread starts .....
My current room is too small for my Snell Es. I will get a bigger room in the future. In the meantime, haw far can tube traps and wall traps go to eliminate my boomy bass problem?
One thought on “BASS: How far can room treatments solve boomy bass?”
Very far. The reason for boomy bass is due to 2 things. One is the nulls and peaks that every room has and the decay time of the low end. Honestly I think decay time is most important as it gives the clarity/punch of the music. The following article is test of foam bass traps vs our fiberglass bass traps but it also talks about decay times. http://www.gikacoustics.com/news_020912.html
