Your company would make way more money if you lowered your prices. Fast quarters are better than slow dollars. Great products and incredible knowledge. Great stuff. We’re building another studio complex with live rooms and control rooms. Your products have priced us out unfortunately. Thanks for the knowledge. You’re the best in the business. .

Thanks for your videos, Dennis. I like my current recording space, but low flying planes are becoming more of an issue. I'm in the processing a finishing a vocal booth at the moment, the structure is finished but I'm getting into the internal treatments. So it's a blank slate. The walls are 46.5" both ways and the ceiling about 7'1'' made of 3/4 MDF. I considered a diffuser to help with boxiness in the sound, but I believe in another video of yours that they need about 4 feet to the listener to properly do their job, I guess it would have to be on the back wall if used. So that would cut it close considering the placement of the mic maybe a 1 1/2 from the front wall. Do you think the space is still too small to consider a quadratic diffuser? I haven't gotten too far into this part yet, but just considering my options as I add treatments. Thanks again, Dennis.

Baes upon usage and distances, your room would only qualify for a 7. The P--7 is 4 1/2" deep. However, it would diffuse starting at 850 hz. and going through 3,500 hz. It would cover the higher end of male and female voice. I do not know how that would sound to a microphone.The numbers look good enough to try the wall you face. Start at 24" off the floor and cover up until the ceiling. I would use 2--D

Great video Dennis, hope you don’t mind me asking but being sat only 3feet from my rear wall in my 2 channel listening room, would I benefit still from quadratic diffusion on my rear wall behind my head? Thank you Peter

Is it possible to use a very light wood like balsa wood to make a diffuser?
@AcousticFields
@AcousticFields 2 жыл бұрын
You have to be careful using small wood. Over time, it will warp creating phase issues. A diffuser works entirely using reflections. You need to have at least 2.5 lbs. / sq. ft. density,

In a 2 ch system, would diffusion on side walls be effective or necessary? TQ!
@AcousticFields
@AcousticFields 2 жыл бұрын
It depends. You must have enough distance from listener to sidewalls. If that variable is met then you use diffusion on the sidewalls. However, using diffusion on the sidewalls can result in some phase issues so distances are critical. In two channel rooms, we use absorption on the front and sidewalls to reach a critical level of definition and resolution along with a strong center image. We then take that defined and resolute image quality and expand it using diffusion

Rear wall reflections have time signatures that compete with the direct energy from our speakers. Diffusion has benefits up to 20' distances near field.

Ignoring practicality, is there a lower freq limit to the effectiveness of diffusion? Would a 7.5ft deep diffuser be effective at 30hz? I assume the limit is where the sound becomes a pressure issue instead of a reflection issue, so it probably would not.
@AcousticFields
@AcousticFields 2 жыл бұрын
A 100 Hz. diffuser is 36" deep. Below 100 Hz, its all about pressure and its ability to pressurize (load) the room.

What exactly determines whether a room could benefit from diffusion? I understand you need the ice cream before the chocolate sauce hehe but what are the criteria for deciding that the ice cream "needs" chocolate sauce?
@AcousticFields
@AcousticFields 2 жыл бұрын
Usage and distance from room boundary surfaces to listener determines whether you can use it. Diffusion is a technology that makes a small room sound larger. If this is part of your sonic strategy for your usage then start measuring distances from each wall to listener.
@TwoScoopsOfTubert
@TwoScoopsOfTubert 2 жыл бұрын
@@AcousticFields I guess my question relates more to how it's determined that it's part of one's sonic strategy. For instance reverb lengths can be measured to determine problem frequencies and so the appropriate absorption can be installed. But how does one come to the conclusion that "this would be better if the room sounded larger than it is"?

All diffusers "Work" they spread sound out the sound waves. The problem is that most of them A) do not diffuse evenly. B) do not cover a wide enough frequency range. C) Are not implemented properly. "Diffusion can act like a magnifying glass" I like that.

I purchased your DIY plan bundle last year and built several P-13 diffusers in Cherry for the rear wall of my horn-based music room, and was blown away by the improvement to the listening experience. My soundstage grew in all directions, and instruments/vocals became more focused and spatially convincing. I can't really say I regret not using them sooner because I didn't know what I was missing, but moving forward I could never go without them.
@AcousticFields
@AcousticFields 2 жыл бұрын
Yes, we get comments like this a lot. Diffusion once heard produces two reactions. The first is regret that they didn't discover it sooner and the second reaction is that they will never be without it again. Now, place diffusion on the front wall, so both surfaces are working together. If you think rear wall diffusion was wonderful, wait until you get both the front and rear walls working together. You can go with a higher prime number for the front wall.

@@AcousticFields Thanks, Dennis. I've elected to make some compromises, as the front wall has a couple of windows onlooking a gorgeous view. When listening I deploy some thick acoustical theater curtains over them to mitigate the glass sound. I may consider building some freestanding diffusers that can be moved into place.
