out of curiosity, what are the audio applications of rockwool? I have only ever heard abbout it being used in a very different application.

You should check out rockwool's web site. Indeed they have many products which is suitable for sonic treatment. Although I think the topic poster should ask the same at Ethan Winer's acoustic forum. There are many very helpful people out there.

I'm not in the DC Metro Area - I'm in St. Louis. The OP had asked about web resources also.

If you guys want to get together and do a group order for out there, I'll work with you on price.

For applications, personally, I use it exclusively for broadband bass absorbtion. Now, I only stock the heaviest density material and do so specifically for that purpose. I can get ligher densities on special order (not very popular) and can also get other thicknesses on 1 day's notice.

bape is a great guy so I don't want to take any sales from him, but check to see if you have a spi in your area.

Good deal.

If you can find it locally, that's always the best solution from a cost standpoint.
