What's some good studio foam?
What would be some good quality studio foam for a decent sized open room in my house? Any certain brands of foam I should look for?
|
I wouldn't recommend any brands of foam as it only combats one of the many problems in acoustics, and it also is the simplest one to treat (as many different things can combat flutter echo)
We would be able to help you much better in your decisions regarding acoustic treatment if you could tell us what the room is for, the exact dimensions, and why you want to treat it |

My point is generic vs auralex isn't much of a difference. My advice was to build panels, how is that bad advice when its pretty much what you suggested.

if for some reason you HAVE to use foam, then RPG's "Pro-Foam" is the only one i recommend....
1) it has a variable depth air cavity built in to the design. 2) it is stackable , so assorted depths can be built up without having to re-order a completely different panel.... unlike most, RPG are not a foam converters taking advantage of a market niche , they're actually the worlds foremost acoustic device designers and manufacturers...... and the foam is a minor product in their arsenal. building panels with fibreglass/mineral wool is usually a better solution..... but if for some weird reason you HAD to use foam, Use RPG. |
Yes if you did use foam I would stick with RPG. I did some testing of some off brand stuff here.
