This advice was given to me by Roy Johnson of Green Mountain Audio speakers. If the foam you have is high density foam, like what's used for seat pads of furniture, you'll get very good benefit at the highs and mids if you cut a 4' by 4' piece of peg board in half and make a pair of 2' by 4' panels about 2" apart on the one side by spray gluing your foam to the peg board, then wrap it with a very transparent (easy to see through) fabric. Spray the glue on the peg board, not the foam--that way it doesn't clog the pores of the foam. Hang them on the wall spacing four 1" thick spacers on each panel so the sound may travel behind the them. 2 on each side would require double the materials, but would be highly effective at the 1st reflection points. If your foam isn't high density, go online and buy 2" and get even more benefit--it will cost you about $100-125 for all 4 panels for everything needed.
Small room....treating 1st reflection points
Hi Everyone,
Thinking of treating 1st reflection points at side walls, front and back walls. Some foam cornere bass traps. Floor has a throw rug. Not gonna treat ceiling. Bedroom size 10 x 14 x 10. Have access to 1 inch acoustic foam...will I be able to see an improvement or should I even bother since it's only 1".
Thanks.
