Anyone else here interested in, or built, or even heard Folded Well Diffusers??

I was introduced to the Folded Well Diffuser while looking around Agon, I forget who had first mentioned it, but I thought I might have a go at building some for my listening room.

RPG have submitted a patent for extended bandwidth folded well diffusers,

ReadScapes have a DIY page with many options to choose from, I went with the 40mm Prime number 7 version

These are made from cherry wood, except for the ply board backer

I made some myself using 3/4'' plywood. The dividers I used 1/4'' maple ply which was lacquered on one side from factory. I've noticed the dividers have bowed and warped on me once installed. What's his name says you have to use cherry, I'm sure wood species will make a difference, I'm gonna use red oak next go around.
