“Belief Systems that are not based upon fact just continue to perpetuate themselves" - Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm going to be quoting this!
Most belief systems we see currently in the acoustical treatment marketplace have very little basis in hard science. Most belief systems are fueled by half - truths, innuendo, and outright exaggeration. I believe this observartion can apply to many things in today's world.
Hi Dennis. I owe you a debt of gratitude. Several years ago I heard your name mentioned on a forum talking about "Bass traps." At the time I was about to treat one of the worst possible dimensioned room. After absorbing your information. (pun intended) I scrapped the idea. Even after purchasing your DIY plans I realized I still couldn't afford to do it right. So, thanks for your hard work and generous sharing. It's saved me spending fools cash. Perhaps one day though! sgnd: Bruce
@@rushmuzik Room is way too small for that. 20 feet is not as big as you think, when it's full of band gear. This is a full band setup practice/jam/recording room. Already finished. Solid poured foundation (absorbs LF) and barn-board wall paneling. Room sounds good. Can turn the P.A. up to max with no feed-back. I use close-miccing and will perhaps make some units that can be moved in around the mix position.
Considering that 90% of the people coming here for advice are looking to spend a limited amount of money and 1 of your ACDA10's cost over $1000, you are unfortunately addressing only 10% of your viewing audience. Although not necessarily profit only driven as your videos appear to be, it would be far more helpful to use your vast knowledge to actually try to address people's issues rather than just sound condescending.
We don't need anyone to tell us what our core customer base is. After 18 years in business, over 200 employees and millions in sales, we have that figured out. What you do not understand is our committment to room resolution and the physics behind it. Focus your energies on the space requirements for room resolution rather than what you think our business model should be.

This is so interesting! Thank you for giving a little information, and making it accessible to all.
Glad it was helpful!
@@AcousticFields What does it mean when I'm getting low 32-75hz bass response but anything above that, it is non existent. It

What was the dimensions of that room?
@@rushmuzik 20x20x7' high
@@slowfinger2 wow. Wasn't there an option to build a smaller room within that bigger room and use the extra space for a lounge?

Thank you for all the clarification, this was a good one!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thx for tha enlightenment abt “bass traps” Dennis, this was really good and valuable information. Thanx a lot.
Bass is not trapped by anything. A kick drum strike energy travels 350'. Low frequency energy is managed, never trapped.
You just saved me a lot of time and money!
Low frequency energy requires that it provide a lot of absorption horsepower in order to bring attack and decay rates into focus.
Where can a beginner start in order to learn from you
Our videos are designed to educate.
@ I understand and I appreciate your content. However some of it seems as if I’m in the deeper end of the pool. Would you recommend I start elsewhere
Good stuff, as always.
Thanks again!

The industry perverted terminology is not BASED upon scientific facts... 😉
You are correct. Not only is there no real science behind most, they pervert the performance of the "technology" they do have.
