Thread Starter | Help With Bass Trap Material I feel like an absolute idiot. I did a ton of research and got the plans for my 2'x4'x4" traps and bought all the best stuff. When I went to buy the material I transposed in my dyslexic mind Burlap for Canvas and bought Canvas. Then I brought it home and upholstered my traps. If I put my mouth on the canvas and breath I'm labored to get air through it. Should I tear it off and go buy the Burlap or is the Canvas sufficient? Will it be like having nothing at all? Thanks 25 million in advance. dolbs |

|  For corner bass traps canvas is fine. For absorbers at reflection points you really do need a fabric that's more transparent. --Ethan

Thread Starter | Thanks Ethan, that's a huge relief. I will just have to reupholster the 2 I'm using as reflection points. dolbs |
