Re: How to reduce bass in the building

Hi Philipp,

Have made this here and it's ok for my ears (and neighbors don't complain !) :

Top of the shelves are just upon the head when sit.
Distance between speakers "center source of sound" are the same than distance between nose and each speaker. Between the wall and the support of the shelf : rubber slices (some kind of 4mm "plumbing joint") crossed by bolts. Between the support and the shelf : rubber slices again (call that the cheap "silent-block bolt"))). To angle the speakers : a 5cm wood cube, so the speaker rest on its front edge and on the wood edge (less contact surface = less vibration IIRC). PLUS, you can add somme rubber under the edge of speaker and wood, in my case not necessary.

Of course, if your kids, cats, dogs, or drunk friends are supposed to jump around the room you put the speakers in, I will not recommend to have speakers in that kind of position 60cm above your keyboard and audio gear... without addind a "security chain" (big steel cable with some plastic around) between the speakers and the wall (have done that, using 1 "bolt nut" of the speakers' back). In other situations, if you don't exaggerate the angle (means calculate the size of the wood cube) it will probably be ok.

HTH, some words are between " " because not sure of translation !

Hi there,
I need to reduce the loudness in every room except the one with
speakers. The issue seems to be mainly bass frequencies, which is hardly
a surprise. Physically decoupling the speakers from the walls would be
the most appropriate solution in this specific case. Currently some
speakers hang while some sit on wall-mounted boards.

What's the best but still reasonably easy/cheap way to decouple the
speakers?

My guesses so far:
a) hanging is better than wall-mounted boards
b) decoupling actually helps, at least a bit

TIA for any comments

Regards,
Philipp
