Hallo, I want to build a Ethan winner style Basstrap, but mine is closed on both sides airtight with plywood. Does the Basstrap work when I hang it maybe 2 inch away from the ceiling ? Or must one side close to the ceiling , without a space Thanks Reinhard
Nobody has a answer ?
So you are buliding a membrane bass trap? If so, from what I can tell, they are placed right up against the wall. Bryan Giles
