Building a Frameless Broadband Absorber

by DTV Star on August 27, 2010


In my home studio I found that room treatment was the best upgrade I ever bought. I'm in the process of increasing the number of panels from 13 to 22, and this video shows the construction of one panel. I use a cheap, quick, simple technique, wrapping the compressed fiberglass in burlap without a frame or mounting hardware. OC703 is rigid enough to be self-supporting, and I can fit two panels snugly between the floor and my 8 foot ceiling. Please visit the Home Brewed Music blog at www.homebrewedmusic.com for more information on building broadband absorber panels like this. You can find a bill of materials and more details on the construction. There are also posts showing the layout of the panels in the room and frequency response measurements for different configurations.

Thanks for visiting. Burlap is a standard covering, it’s not a very tight weave and passes air very easily.

i think your fabric its too thick you should use polyester, if you can blow air easily throu the fabric sound will pass freelly so it improves other wize it reflects mids and highs its just a tip .!!
