hi,
i often read that the most done "test" to see if fabric can be used for accoustic things, is to breath through it..
now i actually have to find a fabric for my broad band absorber diy project.
i would like to buy some fabrik from ikea, cause they are looking allright and the price is good. and i don´t want to use burlap for instance.
but when i try to breath through the ikea fabric its not as easy as breathing through bourlap. its possible, but i think after some minutes it would be hard..
so, any one of you allready used some ikea fabric?
and is it also ok if the fabric is not as breathable as burlap?

thanks a lot
