[QUOTE="Shonver, post: 4943, member: 34"] I've never experimented with various types of stuffing, but I've read that normal pillow-stuffing polyfill is not as effective as, for instance, Acousta-Stuff, as the extrusion profile (cross-section) is circular, whereas Acousta-Stuff -type material is sort of clubs-shaped (clubs from paying-cards). This supposedly makes it more flexible. I guess in the end they're trying to get back to glass wool's performance. This is supported by something else I read about some research done at AR for their acoustic suspension loudspeakers. Here they found that glass wool (Aerolyte think pink) yielded the best results. The study included plolyfill, though I doubt at the time that Acousta-stuff was available. Furthermore, on the user-friendliness of glass wool, I have seen in AR speakers the use of tissue paper to form a barrier. Again, some B&O speakers had the glass wool inside a plastic bag. [/QUOTE]
