  • Bass Traps

    I always like to bring some levity to discussions. I just came online to this forum last night. Thank you all for the kind welcomes.

    This is Pepper, the real Borderdog, arranging his bass traplets. You can get them at any PetSmart or any pet store.
    Pepper was my constant companion, whether on the construction site or at home in my listening room. We were inseparable. He went everywhere with me. He was a true herding Border Collie; from an incredible lineage. It's pretty bad when your canine companion is more intelligent than you. Sadly to say, Pepper passed away one year ago...he was over 14. He had a long and illustrious life.

    Anyways, these are some photos of Pepper setting up his Bass Traplets. I didn't have the heart to tell him that his Traplets weren't really contributing.
    So onto the the levity.
    Maybe with his canine hearing he could hear things I couldn't?
    He was very meticulous in his placement. These photos are few years old, so I don't have any of the equipment from these photos.

    Maybe he thought they were Rune Tunes?

      When the Navy built the ELF system, they tested it with dogs.

        Jonathan,
        That is really interesting. ELF (Extra Low Frequency).
        Come to think of it, when I would fire up my 18" Infinite Baffle Subs, Pepper would want out of the room; depending on what was playing. My Subs are good to 8 hz. There are a few movies that go that low.
        Now, I couldn't hear those super-low frequencies, but the house and I sure could feel it. And my house is built like a brick shit-house.
        I know that Pepper, being a true Border Collie, could both feel and hear it?

        I do know that he could hear higher frequencies, well out of my range.

        Interesting,
        Aaron

          Crikey - I gotta watch myself, or turn pro. None of the above is true. ;->

            A little levitation is always a good thing. Like the dog story~
            So, this means if you got those oversized teddy bears (that are telemarketed during Valentine's day), you could put them in the corners, stack them up in multiples and be good?

              As long as they're filled with Owens-Corning 703!
