I guess I should have put a question mark on the sentence. I was just asking if anyone had any experience with diffusers. They say 4-6 inch depth catches the bass,3-4 for mids. Nothing really about 2 inches doing anything of value. I'll just go to The Home Store and get 12 of them and put behind speakers on front wall.

@rixthetrick from what I understand you don't need them for the back wall. That should be for absorption. Front wall on the ceiling and at points of first reflection. What you are doing is impressive. I don't have the tools to build my own. With the trays it would be about 54 inches tall and 36 inches wide behind each speaker. All in money wise about $240.00. |
@rixthetrick we are on the same page. Front wall behind the speakers . |
My room is 14x22x8. Speakers are about 19in off the front wall 1.5 from side wall. I sit 13 feet from the speakers. They are not toed in. i have a fantastic sound stage with 90% of sound coming from the center. It's just on some music the treble gets a little hot on my ears. Bass can be a little weak at times. Thats why I thought just the 2" depth. Just enough to break up the high notes. |
Update on the install. I installed 8 of the 2" deep wood trays. 4 on each side behind speakers. 4 more, 2 on each side of the back wall. There is a decent amount of reduction in treble glare that I was experiencing with some music. Overall it has smoothed out the room and the bass seems much more clear. Very easy to install. Inexpensive and well worth it for high-end glare. My system consists of Lumin u1 mini with sbooster, Roon Nucleus, AR Ls28se, Audio GD r7he mkii dac, Tyler Acoustic Halo Extrem speakers and 2SVS pb300 subs. Prima Luna Evo 400 Amp. My system and room has been 2 years in the making and this is the best so far. |
