Sounds right to me. Also keep in mind that if the bookcases are forming a cavity behind them where the trap is located, and the cavity is bigger than the trap, you will be creating another trap.
Bass trapping question
Hi,
I'm trying to use bass traps to enhance the sound of my room. I'm using Ready Traps wich use Owens/Corning 703 and their custom made cloth bags to do my trapping. My question is:
Will moving wooden bookshelves whose backing is made of 1/8 or less wood,(and of course with books/records/CDs prevent the traps from doing their jobs if the bookshelves are placed in front of them across each back corner?
My guess is that they would not trap the high frequencys but diffuse them while the low frequencies should pass right on through into the trapping material.
What do you think?
