Hanging bass traps.

The ones I've seen are fiberboard (the light breakable stuff) wrapped in dacron. Using a peice of 1x2 along the top helps ensure the wires etc.. don't pull through the fiberboard.

Kevin,

Can I find this soft fiberboard at Home Depot. What is it called.

Let me know.

Thanks,

luis.
 
Here in the US one of the trade names is Celotex. Most so-called "acoustic tiles" are similar material. You can break off chunks of it with just your fingers if it's the right stuff.

You would normally wrap it in fiberglas batts (not boards) but only if it will be contained behind cloth of some kind (they usually are, since they're used inside a bass trap for more absorption) - otherwise, there's the danger of airborne fibers, a very real health hazard... Steve
