freezermeat Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 So going to be building a fake wall in the living room to house some in wall R-5650-W's, should a guy be putting some insulation in behind the speaker or just leave them "open air"?

ACV92 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Open air is what they're designed for. The only reason you may want to put insulation in the cavity is to keep sound from escaping into the adjacent room. I have some R-5650-S for rears in my setup. One was on an exterior wall so it had insulation. I added insulation on the other side to perceivably keep the sound characteristics the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
