[QUOTE="Brad Weber, post: 82690, member: 114"] Re: DIY Acoustic Panels On a totally different aspect, "acoustic panels" could be referencing a pretty wide range of materials, goals and purposes. A sheet of gypsum board on studs is an acoustic panel and even has some desired acoustical characteristics if you want some higher frequency reflections and absorption around 125Hz (via diaphragmatic absorption). Diffusion, reflection and/or absorption, broadband or narrowband/tuned, 2-D or 3-D, etc. could all lead to different materials and constructions. I have to wonder if you could get a good portion of the same absorption with just a 2" layer of fiberglass or mineral wool board with an additional 2" to 4" airspace behind it. That may save some cost, however it may not be as damage resistant as filling the full depth. [/QUOTE]
