    I never have used a trap on bass...I find that a black motor oil worm with weedless hooks cranked super slow on the bottom works wonders though....

    My general understanding is that when sound waves pass through a panel the air contacts the fiberglass and is dissapated as heat.

    I built all my panels using Dow Corning 705 fiberglass mounted on top of a wood frame and wrapped with a breathable fabric. I found the 703 was too absorbing and killed the mids/highs.

    The front face of most of my bass traps are covered with aluminum foil backed paper. Otherwise the room is too dead. Obviously the first reflection panels do not covered with foil/paper.

    It is a balancing act and it takes a lot of panels before really changing the room. I have 10 bass traps and 4 first reflection panels.

    I my case I was able to turn an echo chamber into a decent room.
