Back wall problem

Hi

after long time i decided to make a change in my room so i took out my closet,and then i discovered that the back wall behind the closet is 10 cm normal concrete blocks (the other walls are made from ytong ) when i knock on that wall i can hear a big echo ....

i have 2 superchunk bass traps on the front wall 2 more bass traps should come on the side wall and one will be on the ceiling,two on the coroners of the back wall....just to check it out i put 3 bass trap on the back wall but still there is a big mess with the low freq over there.....

btw on the mix down spot where i am setting everything sound pretty good,the stereo image is amazing,the problem is that who set on the sofa that place on the back wall is suffering from the low freq.

what should i do????

This is the exact same problem I'm having. I will be following this thread hoping for a response from GLIK or Real Traps.

You didn't give dimensions but that looks like a small room. Add another dozen bass traps and you'll be closer to your goal.

That's a really small room man. I know I responded to your post over on SOS, but with these dimensions in mind it's going to be very tough to get the couch in the back sounding like the listening position. It's probably better if you concentrate on the listening position and don't worry too much about the couch. Besides, most everything you do to improve the listening position will improve the couch area as well.
