Re: Owens Corning 705 base trap

209.215.72.229

Go to the Owen Corning web site, find the Customer Service number, call them and find out who you closest OC distrib/dealer is, and contact them. They may have to look the part number up, as they may seldom get any inquiries about these ( the folks who use them a lot get them direct by the truckload), then you may have to wait for the next order to come from OC to the local guy, as you will only be ordering one carton, or maybe two.

The end result is roughly equivalent to a 11" tube trap IF properly constructed.

This will be good down to about 70-80 Hz, and the cut-oof is not a suddden one, but gradual, with some absorption down to at least 35 Hz or so.

No, they will not be quite as effective as the fg and wire kind.

I recommend building a pair or quad of 14-16" fg and wire types if you really want to control; the LF's effectively.
