Corner base trap- to the ceiling?


I see lots of corner bass traps installed where they don’t go all the way up to the ceiling. I guess bass sound waves more so accumulate in the lower side of a room, but don’t a lot of these pressure amplitudes reach the upper half? Wouldn’t it be better to have a corner base trap extend all the way up to the ceiling?

Is it possible to have too many bass traps in a room?

Why can't I edit the topic field? Yeah I discovered bass was spelled wrong because I have to dictate everything. I missed seeing the misspelling before I posted and now I can't change the damn field.

@bigtwin , didn't mean to trigger anyone, just expressing my opinion. I followed Acoustic Fields for a while, but didn't find it useful in the end. I'm sure his consulting service has tuned many rooms successfully. I use the approach of measuring my setup with REW, and using a combination of pressure and velocity absorption, multiple subs tuned with DSP, and room setup to tame low frequency response. To each their own.

There are accusations of Foley's less than altruistic behavior on other audio forums, if interested.  

Try running a 50 or 60 hz tone through your system and walk around the room. 
 

Get low in the room , and get high up in the room. 
 

It’s crazy how dramatically the tone changes.
