Hi there!
I i’m from italy and i just moved into a new home, now I have a room where I would like to mix when the studio where I work is not free. I bought the DIY package, but I have doubts about the bda:
1) Does the pegboard have specifics like: number of holes or size of holes?
2) the foam brand available near me are: Isover, knauf and rockwool (some seller also have panels of hemp or sheep’s wool.) you can advise me which ones you think are the best if you know something in particular or which specifications I have to take into consideration when buying (best density, material or other)
3)can i use the same panel for for the acoustic panel DIY or there are other specs for this kind of panel
Thank you very much for the attention

M, Use pegboard that has 25 mm hole diameters with 25 mm on center holes. I will have to see the specifications of what you are going to use. Stay away from insulation types for the BDA exterior absorption . You can use it inside the cabinet. The DIY panel drawings are included in the bundle you bought.

Are you sure about 25mm size holes? I ve never seen 1″ hole pegboard in my life let along them being at 1″ centers. please set me straight.
