Auralex Bass Traps

The Auralex Bass traps are primarily the acoustic energy absorbers which built so as to damp the low frequency sound with the intention off gaining a flatter low frequency also called LF frequency room response by reducing such frequencies.These bass traps are used in recording studios,mastering rooms and home theaters and also the other rooms which require a clean sound environment.

They function by converting the sound energy into heat by the process of friction.Resonating absorbers and porous absorbers are the two types of bass traps.The resonating absorbers tend towards the narrow band action while the porous absorbers absorb the sound all the way across the hall at low,mid and high frequencies.Comparatively the porous absorbers has more advantages than the resonant absorbers.This is because the porous absorbers need not be extra tuned to match the work and they tend to be more robust in size and have an easier build type.

Examples of the resonating absorber bass traps are the Helmholtz resonators which are devices mostly made on diaphragm elements or membranes.Resonating type brass give good absorption of sound waves by sympathetic vibration of some suspended element.These suspended elements can come in many forms such as the air volume captured inside the Helmholtz resonator.

The material used in porous absorber types are fiberglass,mineral wood and open cell foam and they function in the presence of little holes in the medium which are found in the captured pockets of air to the room.These excite the pressure waves in steady volume and then later vibrate like small springs.The Auralex Bass Traps is a very cheap and effective product.The features are plenty any audiophile would love the non acoustic effect it would give to their home theater rooms or recording studios.The product is extremely durable and Auralex gives it a long warranty so it also a reliable bass trap.
