Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Possible Bass Trap in Wall Cavity

Remus, are there any plans or solutions or considerations for managing resonance with in the ducting? My basement has all the ducting in it and I’m trying to think of a way to neutralize possible resonances and frame in drop downs and boxes around all the ducting for aesthetics too.

I like your space. It looks awesome. Open spaces and a clean slate is pretty fun to have to work with.

Thank you Kodiak!

I was planning to add rockwool safe and sound around all the HVAC areas to try and help absorb some of the sound from/to the HVAC runs, am not sure how well it work, I have heard of some people using a heavier type of stick on sound deadening material, similar to how people will add dynamat to car frame/doors or slipping on HVAC duct liners.

I have not fully determined what I will do yet, but am considering all reasonable options.

Thank you. I’ll check those options out. I’m a long ways away from getting my project going down in the basement. Still a ton to do everywhere else in the house.

One could / would need to just do all 3 of those options. Sticky it with the sound deadener,then wrap with insulator jacket and stuff the Roxul into the drop down boxes. What more can you do.
