- In today's video we're going to talk about how to get good bass in small rooms. Good bass usually is a thing that happens in larger rooms but obviously real estate's expensive and we all have to be relegated, if you will, to a smaller volume and space requirements. So how do we get good bass in small rooms?
So in today's video you'll learn:
1. Why matching the size of your driver to the size of your room is critical (and I give you some examples),
2. Why matching the right kind of acoustic treatment to the problem is imperative and
3. Why the location of that treatment must match the problem area or it won't work.
So enjoy the video and as always please let me know if you have any follow up questions.
Thanks

hello Dennis, first off i want to say this was a very informing video. Im novice to acoustic treatment solutions, all i know is to throw up some bass traps and foam lol however im moving into the top floor of my building and im going to use one of the bedrooms for my recording/mixing space. I dont have to worry about how loud i play but im a studying audio engineer so i want my mixes the best possible. One of the walls in the bedroom is concrete and the other is just a regular wall. To the north is a glass sliding door that connects to a sunroom and the south wall is where the entrance to the room is. The ceiling is concrete as well. It has carpet floors and is about your avg size bedroom with 8/9 foot ceilings. From a novice perspective how would you recommend me to start treating my room other than your foam typical auralex foam and bass traps?

Thanks for the video, they help explain a lot of things. Just wondering whether you have any advice for dealing with very large windows in a 10x13 feet room? I have one on the right wall (left wall is solid throughout) and and front wall between the speakers (rear wall is solid). There are curtains (but not so thick). Noticed that if I place the speakers on the window side, the low frequencies and imaging aren't as good as the solid wall side.

Problem is I need to place the speakers on the window side since the door is on the other side. Makes it difficult to get in and out if I put the speakers on the good side of the room.

Super grateful for the information. I understand that in small rooms, most times it is better to have small boxes and add a subwofer in the correct position, right ?. Most of the time the opposite is done to what should be done, to put bigger boxes than it should be. What do you think of the different configurations of the boxes of the subwofer ?. Is there a difference in having the port below or on the side? In the market there are many models, which would be the most suitable considering the configuration of the sub speaker? Thank you

@AcousticFields 7 жыл бұрын

Hi I, The room does not care how the energy is generated. Ported or non makes no difference. Output is output. Maybe more energy out of a ported but maybe not depending on driver diameter. It doesn't matter to the room. Its all frequency and amplitude.

Hi Didac, Noise measurements would have to be taken of all outside sources. Frequency and amplitudes would have to be measured and the appropriate barrier designed to deal with those frequencies and amplitudes. Reflections inside the box would have to be treated correctly to create a reflection free environment.

Hi Siddiq, Room size and volume must match your intended usage. This is the biggest mistake I see people making. They try to do too much in too small of a space. Use our data base as a guide. Fill out the information requested in this link: www.acousticfields.com/free-room-analysis/. I will then compare your room size/volume/usage to our data base of now over 130 built and measured rooms. We will look at low, middle, and high frequency issues in your room and then we can better understand what the room is capable and not capable of. It is much better to understand the capabilities of your room before you try to assign a usage.

Please could you go into a bit more detail on what speaker size is optimum to choose for various room sizes? Also if you have bigger speakers but run them at a lower volume to compensate is there any downside to doing this or any issues I should be aware of? I currently have a quite a small studio room 240 x 215 cm - what would be the optimum size for this room? I currently own Focal CMS 65 6.5 inch monitors. Are they too big for this room and should I be looking at 4 or 5 inch ones? I tend to run them about 50 - 80% volume. I'm looking to buy a sub to get more detail and info in the low end since I make a lot of techno music. Should I be looking at 8 inch, 10 inch or 12 inch subs? Would I really benefit from an 8 inch sub that isn't really much bigger than my current monitors?

I have a makeshift home theater in my basement, and the bass cancellation is so bad that I don't know where to start. The room is 20ft x 15ft, but with an L-shape since there is a 4ft x 10ft closet walled off in one corner. The ceiling is only 6.5ft high. It seems like no matter where I put the subwoofers, it will be boomy in one spot and no bass whatsoever in another. Since the seats are located in the smaller part of the L, I was going to treat that area first. Would a simple set of foam panels and a couple corner wedges help at all, or is this room hopeless?

@AcousticFields 9 жыл бұрын

Hi james martin Thanks for the comment. Basements provide for good open spaces but caution must be used in selecting a low frequency source. With concrete and earth as the barrier material, low frequency energy has no where to go and most will stay within the room. It is always the low ceiling height in a basement that causes all the issues. Rythmik Audio makes a good product. I would use their 12" diameter model to begin with and see how that works for your personal low energy requirements. In a space this size and only with proper room pressure management treatment, you could use two units for more impact in a home theater environment. If you fill out this form on our site and provide as much detail as possible including photos of your room, I'll be better able to advise on specifics: www.acousticfields.com/free-acoustic-treatment-room-analysis-tell-us-about-your-room/ Thanks Dennis

(I know it's too small but just bought them and am moving to a larger room soon.) But, I've been screwing around with mixes and what I'm trying to understand is why a car stereo with 4" speakers produces much more bass on the same mix than my Mackie 8" monitors in the bedroom. I understand that my room is too small for bass waves but how can 4" car speakers in even a smaller environment where there is hardly any space, produce much more bass?

It seems obvious to me that improving on room acoustics for the purpose of critical listening is both a practical and empirical process. The relationship between the volume of air present in a room and loudspeaker response must exist but, as an engineer, I would not like to try and calculate it! I was wondering if - considering your practical experience - you have come across a rule-of-thumb that can be applied as a good starting point for sizing and matching a driver to a room?

And for the amount of time you choose to spend sharing your knowledge with others on KZfaq. Your videos are great. Thank you Dennis. (Moving on.)... So I'm an independent/freelance, sound production engineer. ( Freelance meaning I do not have a degree in sound engineering.) I have a question for you about sub woofer isolation. In your personal opinion, how important is isolating the sub from the floor, in any kind of controlled listening environment? A big thank you to Acoustic Fields and Dennis Foley. I Iook forward to your reply.

@AcousticFields 7 жыл бұрын

Hi Jef, Thank you for your support. Isolation of any moving or vibrating source from another surface is always a good thing to do. Subs emit energy into the room through the driver component. This air born energy then strikes the floor. The cabinet vibrations are also transferred to the connecting surface which is usually the floor. Elevating them off of the floor is also welcome. Every room size and volume dictates that any low frequency device will produce a smoother response curve if elevated to certain distances above the floor. These three facts are the design impetus behind our carbon platforms: www.acousticfields.com/product/subwoofer-platform-absorber/

@mikej6103 7 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the speedy reply. I checked out the platform absorber on your site. I was under the impression that it's more on the side of absorption than isolation. Which I understand in that, 18" can probably isolate the source from the receiver with the right materials. But I guess maybe I was searching for a different answer. The reason I asked was because I'm currently building my fifth sub iso unit. The first two types i designed and built were both of a platform style that used absorption. The third and forth were both towers. Less treatment. More isolation. Am I investing to much of myself into this concept? I feel that the time and money i've put into the R&D is well worth the results i've already seen up to this point. I don't know,... Maybe I just hate low end vibration to the point of questing to eliminate it forever. What are your thoughts on this? Oh and, i'd love to see what kind of support structure and design you use, in your sub platform. We can talk later about that though... ty again for your time..

@glengonzales2249 6 жыл бұрын

Sir, please do clear my thoughts; Are subwoofers take advantage of concrete walls, floor, ceilings? Never mind the vibration which thin woods causes. But just the audible low frequency disregarding vibration. We'll hear deeper bass due to the bouncing-back of the low frequency from the concrete wall right? Say, if we have a plywood walls, then the low frequency passes through the thin wood and goes outside the house, thus we lose some of the sounds. But if we have concrete (cement) walls, the low frequency cannot pass through so it will bounce back to the room and thus making us feel more lows because the sound is not waisted, right? Please correct me if Im wrong.

@AcousticFields 6 жыл бұрын

G, All barrier structures do three things. First, they lower the amount and frequency of energy that is transmitted through them by their design. Their structural design is frequency and amplitude dependent. Second is vibration management and third is absorption. All surfaces are sound absorbing at some frequency, even concrete. Will a more rigid and dense barrier such as a concrete wall let less low frequency energy pass through it, then the answer is a question. What frequencies are we discussing? I would answer by saying yes it will stop most frequencies above 50 Hz. assuming the concrete wall is at least 6" thick. The density of the wall has a direct impact on the resonant frequency of the wall or the frequency at which the wall absorbs energy. Any energy above the resonant frequency will be restricted, any energy below that frequency will not.

@AcousticFields 8 жыл бұрын

+James Moss Hi James, there is no such thing as "sound proofing". You build barrier technologies to minimize the impact of noise transmission through room boundary surfaces. Do not "think about building" anything First, measure the issues and build the barrier that satisfies the magnitude and frequency of the noise transmissions. Noise does not care about what you are thinking because most of the material out in the public domain is not accurate. The common misconception I see a lot is the double wall concept. Building a double wall will impact noise transmission above 125 Hz. It has minimal impact on frequencies below those numbers.

18' is the proper minimum depth of a studio. This dimension allows for an unbroken wave length of 60Hz This does not mean lower frequencies can not be duplicated. It means that 60Hz is reproduced without reflection. 60Hz is by no mistake the main resonant frequency of a 15" speaker and a 22" bass drum. It is not a mistake that the low frequency EQ on a classic Neve console is set at 63Hz-- also called the English drum sound.

@AcousticFields 5 жыл бұрын

K, Yes, but carry your thinking further. To treat that 60 Hz. resonance with proper rate and level of absorption, you need 10" of real estate on all wall surfaces that cause said resonance. You will need to treat at least two opposing wall surface areas thus losing 20 - 25" of internal dimension. If you plan your internal dimensions to be 18' net then allow for another say 24" for treatment, you end up with O.D. of 20'. and a room treated completely down below 60 Hz. Quantifying the problem and qualifying the solution all in the same structure is the way to go.

By definition it takes two parallel walls within our rooms to produce axial modes. It takes four of the same to produce tangential modes and six walls to produce oblique modes. It is not two parallel corners. Corners only represent a small percentage of the complete wall surface area. It takes two parallel wall surfaces at a minimum to produce unwanted low frequency issues. You must treat at a minimum 60% of each wall surface area to manage unwanted axial modal issues.

Low frequency absorption surface area requirements are based upon many issues. You must locate the unwanted pressure areas and apply the correct square footage of the treatment that can deal with the problems in that specific room area. Each room boundary surface area may have different requirements because of the room size and volume, low frequency driver diameter, and listening pressure levels.

Fundamentally correct however a few corrections (there are more but I'll stick to 2): 1) WRT the statement that a 10" vs. 12" driver is 20% "larger" is incorrect. Using the simple area of a circle formula, A = Pi (R squared), 10" = 78.5, 12" = 113.1 which is ~44% larger. 2) WRT 10" vs. 12" is 2 - 3DB louder, true, however output can be managed via subwoofer output levels making driver size primarily superfluous.

All varaibles matter. Driver is directly related to speed of the driver and the output presentaion value. I have owned drivers from 10" - 24". Manufacturers claim that they can get a large driver size to move as fast as a smaller driver. I have never heard that in over 50 years of listening.

@@AcousticFields It's more complicated than driver size and speed especially with woofers and subwoofers. Driver cone size, weight and excursion are all interrelated (e/g: you don't need as much excursion with a larger driver for the same SPL) however, cone weight (including the spider) affects what most people call speed or "fast" bass. In my 45+ years listening along with my engineering background I have owned woofer drivers from 6" - 18" and heard many, many more. There are "fast" large drivers - in the right application.

X, The goal of acoustic treatment is not to "block" anything. Treatment comes in two types: absorption and diffusion. Your issue is a noise transmission issue and must be dealt with using barrier technology which is a permanent build. You must measure the frequency and amplitude of the noise and then build the proper barrier to reduce the noise transmission.
