Hey ethan, I put up 10 traps in my room 4 inches thick.. attacking all eairly reflections and I think I have a modal problem now, I tried using the JBL calculator but... well it only says bad things to me.

I am as close to my front wall as possible 3.5feet from it to be exact.... and in my 10 foot deep room is about where I should be. 60hz is still being thrown to the rear 38% and I am not hearing it in the front 38% its not a DB null but an audible null.... so strange with my SPL meter I get 85hz in the back 38% then when I move up it goes to 88db but sounds like I lose 20db

80hz to 200hz are nailed.... 60hz is my enemy.

more bass traps on the rear wall? Defusion? Gasoline spill and a nice cigar?
