mkuller,How do you like the ASC traps? Do your bookshelves, flanking them, block their effectiness? Did you consider Ethan's Mini Traps? They are suppose the be more effective in the low base. Thanks.

As I said there was/is a 30Hz standing wave at the front wall - with the Tube Traps it is less obvious. I first became aware of the problem when someone brought over a signal generator with a microphone and print-out. I don't have any measuring equipment myself, so I can't measure their effect. I assume the Traps in the corners by the bookshelves are helping - without them there would still be "pressure zone" there, regardless of the bookshelves. I haven't tried any other type of bass traps - these are about 10 years old - the 20" diameter ones were custom-made, I believe for a speaker manufacturer to use at a CES show. I picked them up second hand.
Regards,
Mike
