Re: 50mm panels worth the effort if no bass trapping exists?

the panels in the corners will be relatively useless , certainly not effective as bass traps.... unless you hinge them so they can come out to 45 degrees across the corner.... it ought to be possible to arrange it so they come out, overlay each other, and clip together to create a "mostly" 100 mm corner panel trap, and fold back into the walls when not in use.... that would be worth the effort..... and ought to keep domestic peace.

the rest, well, do what you can, if you can mount a 50mm panel at least 25mm off the wall surface it would help.... a 50mm panel spaced 50mm from the wall is almost (but not quite) as effective as a 100mm panel directly on the wall.
