"Movable" front wall for RFZ (instead of framing)

6855 sounds like a good plan! :sigh: Glenn, you're doing it wrong. This must be your first week on the internet. This is the part where you tell me that I'm an idiot, that the plan will never work, and suggest that I exit the field of pro audio and take up ditch digging or perhaps animal husbandry....

"Movable" front wall for RFZ (instead of framing)

For what it's worth here is the REW room simulation of my room using average measurements for the length and width and some rough guess numbers for absorption coefficients. I know these numbers are more or less meaningless in the context of my wonky room. My plan for setting up the room is this: I'l...

"Movable" front wall for RFZ (instead of framing)

Hi all - this is a first-pass layout of my proposed control room setup. Note this is my first attempt using Sketchup (web version) so please go easy on me :) The room is, as you can see, somewhat trapezoidal - squashed over to the right. I have to make use of the walls that I have, and can't add fra...

Hey Glenn, I'm getting started using Sketchup Free and wanted to browse your models, but when I click the link above the message I get is "You cannot view this user's content." Are people even using Sketchup anymore? I also have a beginner's level understanding of Floorplanner, which is fi...

"Movable" front wall for RFZ (instead of framing)

I plan on making the front-facing panel as massive / damped as practical to prevent resonance. Do you have a recommendation? I planned on using HDF or MDF which would then be covered in FR fabric and then slatted. This would give the panels high mass and a little diffusion/diffraction. I'm open to y...

Hi Glenn, sorry for the late reply.

Yes, I was thinking something more or less like that, only more modular and with more framing in the back to offer more support.

Is this the solution you built? What materials did you use for the front panel, and how do you feel like it performs?

"Movable" front wall for RFZ (instead of framing)

Hi, this is my first post on this forum, so please forgive me if I accidentally break a rule (yes I did read the rules :) ) This will be my third project studio build. I've relocated to Italy and am building in a farmhouse (think old, thick stone walls). Due to the joys of Italian bureaucracy and ne...
