    Glad to see the 2 ft by 2 ft pillar in the corner and I assume the others are similarly furnished.

    Yes, all four have 2x2 foot rigid fiberglass bass traps; floor to ceiling. One is about 2 feet short though because of a window. The two on the interior wall are open into the storage room so the bass goes in there and doesn’t come back.

    Overall, bass traps are the one thing that I think made the most difference in the quality of sound in the room.

    It’s rigid fiberglass. I believe I used 3 lbs/cubic foot density. It came in 2” x 24” x 48” panels. I cut them all to 24” x 24”, stacked them floor-to-ceiling and covered them with grills my wife and I made. It did not over dampen the room, but the bass is really tight and almost the same no matter where you are in the room.

    Ok, so what we see are frames covered with fabric.

    Yes! If you look at the old picture Heather posted, you’ll see the yellow fiberglass.
