    Monitor Stands

    those are real impressive... they make my home-made pvc-pipe stands look quite pathetic heh. if you make stands for studio monitors make sure they are the correct height (the basic rule i usually hear is the tweeters should be pointed at your ears). also, consider filling in those metal bars...

    Need help

    if you want to create better recordings, you're going to need to read on here a LOT and be willing to learn. for example, dont think that egg crates will do fine because you think so--egg crates are not going to be effective for what you want. some people have given some good advice already...

    Panels

    im hardly the acoustic expert or anything but i dont quite see the reasoning behind wanting the egg crates? if anything wouldnt they just absorb more high range frequencies which is already easily being absorbed by the fiberglass? if anything, id bet youd want to absorb more bass... how big a...
