    Studio Reorganisation

    not really tbh the problem is with the bass, not reflections, so paddng behind wont do anything - basstraps use Owen Corning type rock wool and air to subdue/absorb the standing waves - padding wont do jack... like i say best thing to do is EQ your speaker - drop the bass on your entire system...
