Why use Egg Crate Foam for Sound Proofing?
Egg crate foam is recommended if you want the good sound deadening qualities of wedge foam, but at a budget-conscious price. Egg crate / convoluted foam’s style keeps its price low, yet allows it to absorb sound very well for the price. Egg crate foam is also a good choice for people who want to cover their sound deadening foam with acoustical cloth. The goal of acoustical treatment is to eliminate problems from parallel hard surfaces that reflect sound waves. Another goal to keep in mind is to stop unwanted sound from entering or exiting the room. • Sound Isolation: Generally, noise is isolated by using heavy materials to block the noise. Sound absorbing materials may also be used within wall cavities to reduce unwanted structural resonance. • Sound Absorption: Noise absorbing materials are designed to improve sound quality by reducing and controlling echo and reverberation. • Sound Diffusion: Diffusers are designed to distribute sound evenly throughout the room, and prevent dead spot
