Various approach to bass trapping


Seems there are various approaches towards mitigating the negative effect of room/bass response. Would like to know what approaches folks have used.

And while I cringe a little asking my second question - for I loath the ubiquitous 'is a better than b?' post - are some approaches more effective than others (e.g. ASC tube traps v. Ethan Winter v. Risch home-brews)? If the answer turns out to "depend" then that's good for me to know.

BTW, I currently have 3 15" rolls of R13 stacked in each corner of my room (just in their original packages); the improvement is remarkable in cleaning up the sound, so I am committed to working this aspect of my room.

Thanks,

I am a recent convert to the "your room is a component" religion and I just got 2 realtraps mondotraps... (spec'ed for my room by rives audio). I agree with Cytocyle--these are quite compact for their performance and mine (black) even had an OK reception by my wife.

Probably the biggest difference in bass performance I could have asked for.

Happy listening,
