Sorry to resurrect sucn an old thread, but it's such a good one that I couldn't resist. I have made many 2" thick rockwool trays for my 15'x16' music room, including 6 of them hanging from the ceiling, the middle ones with floodlight cans pointing straight down. This has really improved the sound of my room, but I have a question: In my room, the "absorber" side is always facing the inside of the room, and the back is made of a plywood type substance that I can't spell, but is pronounced "loo-on". Have I mounted these things with the wrong side out? Or would I be a lot better served to remove the backs of these panels so that the sound is absorbed from both sides? If so, this makes so much sense that I can only laugh at myslf for not thinking of it myself. If anyone knows about this, please respond...I'm trying to think of ways as we speak to remove the backs of the panels and support the frames so that the sound can be absorbed from both sides.
