Maybe add another layer of sheet rock and put some fiberglass on the back of that.
acoustic advice resonating wall panels
Hi,
I have wall panels in the corners of my converted garage behind my speakers that resonate when you turn up the volume. It seems to be a problem in the 100-1000 HZ range only.
Can someone suggest a material to put behind the hard panel that would absorb that sort of resonance.
thanks
Michael

The sound pressure peaks force the panels to vibrate, the very thing that the panels are intended to tame. If you take an empty box sealed on all sides except one side and place it anywhere in the room where there's a sound pressure peak or reflected acoustic wave - while playing a test tone circa 300-400 Hz - the box will vibrate strongly. That's why you need to throw everything but the kitchen sink at the sound pressure peaks. Tiny bowl resonators, diffusers, absorbers, Helmholtz resonators, whatever, since the peaks cover a wide range of frequencies. And the peaks occur in the 3D space of the room as well as room boundaries. So the problem is severe. |
Only a specific material cannot absorb the resonance. The most important thing is how you have designed this?? And it's not so easy to design an effective panel at home. Different types of cheap & very effective panels are now available in the market. Please visit http://www.acousticmanufacturer.com/Noise-Barrier-on-Temporary-Fence-for-Construction-Site.html to have an idea about different types of panel. Thanks |
Take a look at these two products... This one is the more affordable of the two http://www.sofsurfaces.com/durasound?gclid=CMnFtLLf1NQCFZW2wAodnS0PCQ This one you can simply glue new sheets of sheet-rock to the existing https://www.google.ca/aclk?sa=l&ai=DChcSEwiZpvCM39TUAhUGBWkKHVtsCjQYABABGgJpcQ&sig=AOD64_2CV...= Regards... |
