No worries, Glenn--but this is not a bass trap--just a 4" absorption panel.  And sorry about calling you "GKI".  Best wishes on getting all sorted out...  
GIK alternatives

CDs And Green Markers. Please Don’t Laugh.
@paul6001 --OP, this thread has been invaluable to me--not for the green marker about which i won't comment--but for the CD storage solution you presented above.  El Wifo has demanded i move CD collection and your solution will allow me to place e...
