Best. Thread. EVER.

Hi all,

Firstly, this is a really awesome thread. Truly in the spirit of what forums like this are intended to be.

Now, I'm about to move into a new room and inspired by this thread am going to build traps of my own. Just a question about corner traps. As they leave a triangular air gap behind them in the corner, would it be beneficial to fill that gap with even more absorbent material like rolled up foam or something like that? Or is it better to leave the gap?

Also, based on what people are saying about tight weave vs. loose weave. Would it be beneficial to use a tight weave fabric on corner traps to skew their effectiveness towards the bass end? I'm guessing the HF reflections off the fabric would be pretty diffuse.
