In the Thread: Do curved corners help???

Post Subject: Curves usually sound betterPosted by unicon on: 9/22/2010

Fulcrum ,

sure it helps to get better sound but the curves you have just made is not sufficient to any serious improvement.

if you are serious about room treatment and acoustics basically you should know what happens in corners ... it can get complicated too, but I summarize it in few words : in corners the sound waves break and try to travel back. so there pressure increases and causes problems like dips or increased sound levels in bass region and comb filtering which can easily change the main form of sound wave. so corners are always best to be avoided & treated in room. and making round corners helps to distribute the energy in different paths so you get better form of reflections.

Try to make bigger curves at least then ...
but before that try to make a proper post of what you want to do in your room
then people here can help more.
