TomessAI, the mic was precisely 77" away from the speakers, 47 3/8" high, pointing straight forward at 60 degrees. Looks like Gregwor got it loaded OK. Thanks for your efforts!When I try to open your file, REW tells me that it is not a .mdat file...I use the latest version of REW. Can you re-safe your file? Also, it is it possible to get the .skp file? It would be more easy to valuate if you can measure the distances to the mic, etc.
Ha Ha! Thanks Greg. I am spending all the time I can on building the rear bass trap until I go back to work on 1/2/2020. Bought the lumber and began cutting the pieces today. Got birch skins on the way. Man! This is going to be VERY HEAVY!The mdat opened fine on my REW. It looks crazy and scary just the way it should!
Mhh, that's really strange...I tried to re-download, but same result. To be precise, I'm using REW 5.19, not the newsest beta version. Maybe you can post some pictures of the measurement? I'm curious...Guit-picker wrote:TomessAI, the mic was precisely 77" away from the speakers, 47 3/8" high, pointing straight forward at 60 degrees. Looks like Gregwor got it loaded OK.

, and I was asking myself if you really need those two sorbothane hemispheres on the side of the speaker. The reason I'm asking is because I'm located in Germany, and it is really expensive to get those sorbothane hemispheres delivered from the states. And I'm planning for surround, so I have three more speakers and a subwoofer to isolate from the framing...
I think I'll start my own post here in the forum. I've already have a thread in Stuarts new forum, but he seems to be a busy guy and has not time to go into some details I'm still struggeling with (Stuart, if you read this, no hard feelings, you've helped me a lot! )Wow! I wish I would have seen this discussion a couple of years ago. I guess I missed that one!Tomess, Stuart's recommended way of isolating the speaker from the framing does require sorbathane on all four sides, but as John said, he doesn't isolate the speakers from the framing at all. Just make the framing really solid and keep the speakers held tightly in the frame.
Someone posted an interview with some well known studio designers (I can't remember now who it was though) and they both agreed that isolating/"floating" speakers is completely unnecessary.
This is a hot topic for debate. My understanding of Helmholz devices is to line the walls with say 2" of insulation, then use a very light pretty thin layer of insulation along the backsides of the slots.I am busy making good progress on building the rear bass trap (all 700 pounds of it), but I have one question:
I am planning on lining the inside walls, as well as ceiling and floor, with Roxul Safe-n-Sound (3"). Is it necessary to fill the ENTIRE cavity with Roxul (kind of like super-chunk style)? I hope not.
For example, take a batt of pink fluffy and rip off a 1 cm layer of it.What do you mean by "light pretty thin layer of insulation"? Can you give an example?
Erics Super Chunk was designed and tested using owens corning 703, a ridgid insulation. Your results would be completely different. But to your point, fill the cavity but do not "cram" the insulation in and it will be more effective at the lf you are aiming at.Guit-picker wrote:I am busy making good progress on building the rear bass trap (all 700 pounds of it), but I have one question:
