They work great for decoupling monitors too, and that's mentioned in the SoffitTraps description on our Products page.

That's the hope!

Ethan,

(From a proud and happy, early minitraps owner)

Do you have any test information that would compare the decoupling properties of soffit traps to 'standard' sand or shot-filled speaker stands?

Now for the dumb question: Can soffit traps be filled with sand-filled thick plastic bags (a standard way of filling speaker stands)? I doubt it, but it's worth asking. I'd guess that sand bags might actually detract from the performance of the soffit traps, but who knows...

p.s. - Get a couple of mondotraps ready for me! I'll be ordering again soon.
