Arash Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I have planty of Wool-Glass fiber in basement ... Is it ok to put some in my Scala dog-house to decrease vibration or noise? Will LS sound better (in Bass) or the wool will make LS more bass-shy due to the lack of free air in dog-house? Here is the picture: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groomlakearea51 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Don't put anything in the "doghouse". Won't work. You should not have any resonance on that section at "normal" listening levels. To increase the bass, search this section for the "ported LaScala" threads (there are several). Good luck! [H] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAKO Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 IF IT WAS NEEDED KLIPSCH WOULD HAVE PUT IT IN 50 YEARS AGO.. SO WHAT DO YOU KNOW THAT KLIPSCH DIDNT KNOW ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironsave Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 As Groom mentioned; that is not the right solution. It was also mentioned (very crudely) that Klipsch engineering has probably attempted various ideas over the years. Check out Groom's link and worse case; get a good sub. LS bass is there; just not thick and heavy like some desire. (Kinda like Heresy Is; different; but same). Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 you only need this stuff on opposing parallel walls....so if you want to get technical....you could cut out a sheet to fit the bottom or top and one or the other of the six inch vertical sides. the angle sections don't need it, nor the mounting board for the driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike the paper batting that's attached to the inside of a Cornwall, fiberglass or poly-fill is sometimes used to trick a woofer into acting as if it were operating against a larger internal volume. That function is unncecessary in a LS doghouse. That being said, some have added stuffing to the increased back chamber volume created when doing the djk ported LS mods. Even then it doesn't go into the doghouse. I've never used the stuff with a LS, orthodox or modified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
