Bass Traps

Bass Trap acoustic panels for studios and home theatres with cool looks, innovative designs and top performance. A must for all small to medium sized professional and home studios.

We have changed the design of these Super bass Traps to add a 4th layer - a 25mm thick Designer Black panel on the front. This panel has a very attractive "raw silk" finish which means the Bass Traps look good in any environment - commercial or domestic. These Bass Traps also utilise our new 50Kg/M3 panels for the rear 3 layers which has the following benefits:
- Greater sound absorption in lower mid frequencies.
- Much lighter weight and therefore more suitable for stacking two per corner.
- Can be trimmed, if necessary, to fit in low ceiling rooms where Traps are stacked two high.

These traps reduce "boominess" & solve the two most common studio acoustic problems:

Nulls - places in the room with either no Bass or a significant drop in volume for all or specific Bass frequencies.

Modes places in the room with bass peaks. These typically occur in the corners of a room and sometimes also in the centre of a room or even at the mixing/listening position.

Once you have solved these two problems listening is more enjoyable, mixing and mastering is much faster and your tracks will sound good in all environments.

Bass Traps should be floor to ceiling in at least the back two corners of your room (preferably all four corners) and have a space behind them of at least 50-100mm. If they do not then you will only achieve half or less of the specified bass absorption. This is because Bass Traps are velocity absorbers i.e. they only trap sound (convert sound to heat) when sound travels through them at maximum velocity. If your bass trap is flat against the wall, or worse still hard in the corner, the sound is not moving when it nears the wall and therefore only limited trapping/absorption occurs.
