Building Traps With (not Rigid) Fiberglass

Storyville · 31st July 2009

So, I have tons of fiberglass at my disposal. But it's not rigid fiberglass. I'd like to use it if at all possible to suck some of the bass buildup in the corners of the room. Is this still practical? What kind of thickness will I most likely need?

Actually just stuff the fluffy fiberglass in the corners (maybe a 17x17x24 inch area) and cover the front with fabric. That will work pretty darn well.

Sounds like a plan. Thanks.
