Cylindrical Bass TrapThe design of the Cylindrical Bass Trap utilizes resonance e ects, slowing down air particles of the highest pressure sound waves through friction, converting kinetic energy into heat and dissipating it into the air. By placing the trap close to the corners or edges of the room, the trap maximizes the absorption e ect, taking advantage of the characteristics of sound waves reaching maximum e ciency at a distance of 1 4 wavelength from the boundary.
