After reading through all the great info here and at Ethan's FAQ page I decided to try and find OC to build myself some wall treatments. After calling several local suppliers from the list that I received from OC themselves I was pretty frustrated to find out that no one even knew what OC703 or 705 was. So figuring I had no other choice and I went ahead and purchased a room kit from Primacoustic.
The room kit from primacoustic works pretty well, but I still think I have a bass build up in my room. I decided to go back to Ethan's FAQ and discovered that I had missed some alternatives to OC703. One of the alternatives is Ottawa Fibre.
This is the stupid part. I live in Ottawa !
After 2 phone calls I know have 2 packages of 2" OFI 48 waiting for me.
The reason I'm posting this is that I need some ideas. I already have the primacoustic kit which I think is doing a good job with freq over 500hz. Using MODCALC I know I have some issues at around 300hz (but of course I'd like to try and treat below that as well) I have foam bass traps in the corners which I would like to leave there if I can. So what I was hoping to do is place the fibreglass on my walls and ceiling with some space behind them.
Any ideas for hanging from the ceiling ? Should they be angled so that the end closest to the speakers are lower ? Any ideas for building frames for both the wall units and ceiling units ?
Sorry for the long rant/story.
Hopefully you guys can help me out.
