going in to build my superchunk corner trap in the morning and i have one last question: when stacking the triangles in the corner, do i need to leave an air gap between the wall and the 703, or do i just push them flush against the wall? sorry if this info is somewhere else on the site, i just couldn't find anything on it.
thanks,
chris

Chris,
That doesn't matter. They are originally tested flush against the wall but will work with a cavity as well.

(Hai Eric, nice to see you here again)
Might, pressing it flush against, the wool not also work as a demping material for the resonating walls?
Ro,
:) Thanks.
I doubt it will have any significant effect on real life build walls

Well, I was actually talking about a gypsum wall (e.g. room-in-room construction).
When there's no acoustical difference, flush mounting saves precious space. Which is good :)
I assumed you were talking about a gypsum wall. :) To damp a solid brick wall you should need more than some wool. But I assume mounting them a bit from the corner will improve absorption somewhat, a bit comparable with using a larger one. :twisted: Don't ask how much: depends, and your guess is as good as mine ......Well, I was actually talking about a gypsum wall (e.g. room-in-room construction).
