New Acoustics Test Lab for SPCR?

Post by BassThatHz » Fri Mar 28, 2014 9:18 am

Here is an echo test of my room.

This was done with a cheapo 2-cent microphone so the noise-floor is not NEAR as excellent as an SPCR ACO mic would be.

Right now I have just over 200sqft of absorption panels, and 20,000lbs of noise-proofing in the walls, consisting of 7 layers.

I could use another $1000 worth of absorption to reduce the echo even further, but this is all I can afford on my own at the moment.

I think it has "potential" for being one of the new testing chambers for SPCR.

Here are some construction photos:

and about 50 of these, among other things to block out all noise...

The walls are over a foot thick and you have to pass through two sets of metal exterior-type solid-core doors to enter (room-in-a-room design).

I was thinking of beefing up the doors even further; make them even thicker, thus even more noise-proof.

So freaking jealous. That looks like a real sanctuary.
