[QUOTE="latlog7, post: 8576263, member: 673155"] So I have this cheap-o sound receiver from eBay that makes LED light strips light up to sound. It works well, but it tends to be way too sensitive for my liking. I was going to just wrap the thing in masking tape, but ideally I want to wrap the receiver in a material that will absorb/deaden/attenuate mid and high frequency sound waves. (so that the lights can flash to the beat) Reading this AWESOME write-up, i found that rigid fiberglass would likely be the best bet. I really suggest you read it if you have the time and want to learn some stuff. [URL="http://ethanwiner.com/acoustics.html#mhf%20absorbers"]Acoustic Treatment and Design for Recording Studios and Listening Rooms[/URL] But this stuff seems to be kind of expensive. Way too expensive for my cheap china led controller in my car. (its about 6"x3"x2" by the way) Does anybody know/ have any ideas on what may sorta kinda work well? Im not looking for anything professional. Just looking to layer on some cheap stuff. Duct tape? Paper? Saran-wrap? Generic foam? Thick layers of paint? Mixture of some of these? Any and all input is fully welcomed [/QUOTE]
