Hi Jacob. Can I get your thoughts on the following? I just received 10 acoustic panels (2x4x3) for my home studio(just for mixing) and on closer inspection, I see that the fabric used to house the rockwool is 10oz canvas duck fabric. When I try to blow through it, it is very resistant to air passing through. From my research, this could be an issue with high end absorption as the sound waves will reflect too easily due to the tight fabric. At the risk of spending over 500$ to re-wrap them in a more porous material, I thought I'd ask your opinion as to wether you think that would be worth it or not. Based on your experience, do you believe the difference would be negligible? Thanks
Good question! Unfortunately, if the fabric is too thick, you’re not getting the full benefit of your absorption panels. I cannot give you a DEFINITE answer if I cannot see the fabric in person. If you observe that it isn’t “breathable” it may certainly be worth re-wrapping them. If you want to email me at Jacob@NGAcoustics.com we can arrange you sending me a sample of the fabric through the mail and I can let you know for sure if it’s worth it!
Hahaha love the energy my man 😂 thank you for the explanation, truly appreciated!

@@NGAcoustics That would be very much appreciated. I'll write to you this evening. Thank you!
Sounds good!
Hey mate, I’ve just submitted the form on your website. It’s under Robert from the UK. Cheers🙏
Awesome, I just got back to you over email! Cheers friend 🥂
@@NGAcoustics Cheers mate, I’ve replied to you.
Density is one of the main factors
Absolutely correct!
