Osnaburg vs. Burlap

[daveyroberts]

Hello,

I'm just wondering what people think of using Osnaburg opposed to Burlap? Is Osnaburg as acoustically transparent as Burlap?

Thanks.

Can you blow through it easily?

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find any yet. I've only read about it. Hopefully someone who has first hand experience with Osnaburg can answer that...

bump... anyone use this for panels and bass traps?

I don't think it's made anymore, but since it's main material is generally Jute, it can't be much different from Burlap.
If you do find it being made and sold somewhere I think you'll find it's just another type of burlap - perhaps calling it Osnaburg to up the price - i.e. if it's more expensive, they're ripping you off!
