Wanna kill backwaves?
I've been reading the master handbook of acoustics, and trying all kinds of things, and the most effective way to diffuse irritating bass and midband distortion might be to make circular or half circular diffusors of plasticine. Just simply add the plasticine sausages in the bottom of the cup, and add mineralwool on top. You'd be surprised of the effect. I'm not yet sure If the highs are absorbed by such small amount of mineralwool, but the plasticine sausages had an HUGE effect on the irritating midband shout. If this positive effect is due to decreased cup volume (possible change in reverberations?) or by diffusion, reamins to be proved. I'm going to test this with my bigger cups containing a ****load of helmholz resonators and one inch of mineral wool.
Cheers. Pictures later.
