Great talking to you too,

>Teal just installed some bass trapping in the corners of a room here in LA that was not built as an isolated room. After doing listening tests, we both decided that there was no need to "stuff" R13 behind the bass traps which audibley increased low end absorption.<

did you test the room?? If so how did you test it..
I have never seen a room get to much bass trapping, but I will say that I have seen people build a bunch of traps and end up killing the high end.. That is where a membrane can help.. Hits the low end but keeps the life in the room.. Maybe that is what you guys are hearing if you are only listening and not testing..
Just a thought..
