From the past few weeks I have been using a borrowed (from Santhosh) the Auralex Gramma for my subwoofer (Product Review - Auralex GRAMMA).
The effect esp. in heavy subwoofer scenes is quite good, like the depth charges scene in U571.
However, for the price 59 USD plus the cost of shipping it, I think one can build an el cheapo version of the same. Since, asking someone to carry this is a bit difficult (as its fairly big) and shipping costs around 50-60 USD.
So, I am thinking of using something like this
1. Use a base of granite - I believe this will be better than wood with carpet layer or even marble as its a soft stone. I believe, the cost of a 3 ft by 2 ft of granite should be around 600-1000 Rs. Correct me if I am wrong?
2. The second thing I liked of the Auralex was the foam like thing in the bottom which is a good isolator but I am not sure. Is this some thing available in stores?
Will putting the granite slab on the floor make it worse?
Let me know your thoughts and suggestions.
