I'm constucting a new studio and have two questions that I would appreciate some feedback on: 1st - The last time we installed studio glass (booth / studio - different thicknesses, angles etc.) we had major visual reflection issues that made us crazy. The walls themselves in the studio are at 5 degree angles, question: does the glass really need to be set at an angle? Since the walls are angled can we set the glass in straight up and elimiate the reflection issue? 2nd - How important is it that all the AC wiring be in metal conduit? Thanks John Cal
Hi,

Yes you can make them parallel. It also will raise TL a bit. Make sure to put absorbtion between the glasses on the perimeter. Is aw Steve and Rod comment several times on this...you should be save. :D Florian
"2nd - How important is it that all the AC wiring be in metal conduit?" - This part should probably be in the Installation and Wiring forum - are you planning a private studio or commercial one? Steve
