Hi guys quick question,

What is the next best yet affordable option for fabric.
Fr701 is out of my budget so what's the next best bet for bass traps?


Thanks in advance,

Hi there "Hovak". Welcome.

Please read the forum rules for posting (click here). You seem to be missing a couple of things! :)

That said, the type of fabric you use on a bass trap isn't important at all. You can use pretty much anything you want. What's important for bass traps is dimensions, location in the room, and the type of insulation material. The fabric is only there for visual reasons: to hide the ugly stuff inside the bass trap. Fabric serves no acoustic purpose at all.

Hey Stuart,

Thank you for your time and help. I really appreciate that.
I updated some personal information on my profile :)

My room is very small. 116" by 140" is my control room and 116" by 130" is the recording booth.
My budget is not high and i need to find some cheap solutions for acoustics. This place is temporary for me, so i don't wanna spend lot of money here.
