The room volume will not work for trying to diffuse bass.  We need to damp it.  Plus, the waves are so large, you'd need something more like the whole width of the room most likely to effectively scatter, and your decay time would still then be out of control.

Hi bpape or Bryan and all Audio Circle members.
I know that diffusers are less effective than bass traps to take care of bass problems.
Thanks for mentionning.

Thanks very much Vulcan. Yes, people often post graphs with the ranges so out of whack it's impossible to assess the data! So I wanted to include advice about that, in addition to explaining how the software works.

Ethan:

I want to commend you on your "Room Measuring Primer".  I used one of your earlier write ups when I was setting up my room measurement system and it was very helpful. This must be a new presentation of what I used. The attention given in this newer presentation to "Interpreting the results" is excellent!!! You hit the basics and is best primer I've seen. Thank you very much! Your presentation of this room measuring primer is concise, neatly presented, easy to follow and understand. Your write -up is most helpful for the understanding of room measurement. I think you should be commended for your educational efforts in this very important area.

Thank You

Hank

Guy13, if I were a betting man, I'd bet you $20 that there is insulation available in VietNam.

Hi Hank and all Audio Circle members.
I am sure there is somewhere in Vietnam a place where you can buy fiberwool insulation, but the question is : Where ?
I've been looking for almost a year now,
still have not found that hidden place.
I just found out that there is an American guy around the corner
that's doing business here and does importation
of all sort of industrial items from the USA
and I already asked him about adding a few rolls of Fiberglass wool
and he told me : No problem.
One last small problem to resolve is: $ $ $
Money for that project will be available in two to three months.
No need to bet and loose 20$. :lol:
