tommyboy Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 I thought about the tapestry idea, but if it won't work, then..... Give the Tapestry a try.......anything for absorbtion to start with. It could work as a dual purpose, to look good AND absorbtion. I couldn't get X's link to work...... I've been looking online for about an hour now, and can't seem to find a tapesty big enough. The only ones I could find that were more than like 30" by 30" are way too much money. Does anyone know any good websites or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestonTom Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I may have created some confusion. The tapestry by itself will have little impact. You need to have some fiberglass (stiff not fluffy) behind it. The more the better, and if there is a gap between it and the wall, then that is even better. This combination will give you some absorption down to the mid(ish) frequency range. The cloth covering the fiberglass may actually be a bit reflective at the higher frequencies (not absorbing) but that is probably not the problem. Cloth by itself will do little. Draping it so there are pleats may help a bit, but it is really the fiberglass (the thicker the better) and a gap behind it that will be most effective. Otherwise you are just deadening the very high frequencies. Good Luck, -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feersum dreadnot Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 How about buying some panels from http://www.atsacoustics.com/ ? I saw these mentioned somewhere else in this forum, and am about to spend a few $ with them in an attempt to tame some room brightness in my HT. Any other members have experience with ATS?

tommyboy Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Did you say you made those yourself? How did you do it? And how much did it cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
