what the best fabric option to use for diy acoustic panels an basstraps with images from

Design Fabric Printing

for my diy acoustic panels an basstraps

or from Contrado: Buy or Sell Artist Designs | Print on Demand


https://www.contrado.com/printing-on-florence-net-fabric



or the default


would either from this site work


my new acoustic tiles an traps are to be four custom 6in by 36in by 6ft frame-less traps two parallel to either side of the ht room

the plan is to get four six packs of roxul 80 an stack in a row of three deep by three tall after trimming them down to 2ft by 3ft an wrap the 6in thick perimeter in burlap an use duct butter on the burlap an roxul i think that will make it sturdy an rigid then wrap the whole with acoustic fabric

i also plan to some 60 x 10 x 3 mm Neodymium Bar Magnets stitched into the burlap in the back of the acoustic panels so as to adhere the panels to some painted metal strips on the wall which hopeful will allow for ease of placement an remove

would anchoring to just sheet rock with expander screws the total weight would be about 57 pounds

using 6 Neodymium Bar Magnets per tiles should give 72 pounds of pull does anyopne think this will work

or is this a crap shoot

With the proper sheet rock anchors that should work. I've 150 lbs plus cabinets hanging on four 75 lbs anchors, Don't know about the magnets, but I don't see why not. Either way, it's the shear force and not the pull that matters.

Have you looked into these? https://www.primacoustic.com/paintables/#control-column
 
For your bass traps, because low frequency absorption, any covering will do... For your wide band absorbers any of the "acoustically transparent" coverings are fine... No need to get picky... Its what's inside that counts...

It might be helpful to have a look at some of the products at GIK, ATS or the others to see how their products are made and suggested placement...

Good luck with your project(s)...
