Descriptionrelated itemswarranty
Acousta-Stuf is a synthetic material made from crimped fibers. It is an excellent choice for filling small enclosures or transmission line cabinets. Long fiber wool has been a favorite among serious speaker builders but Acousta-stuf is less expensive than long fiber wool and does not have the problem of harboring moths. Acousta Stuf™ will also outperform Dacron, foam, and fiberglass. Acousta-Stuf is a sound absorption, dampening fiber that will deepen bass, provide cleaner midrange and improve the dynamic extension of any speaker system. There are no health hazards with Acousta-Stuf and no mask or gloves are needed when using this product. Most sealed and vented enclosures require 1/2 lb. of dampening material per cubic foot of enclosure. For best results it is recommended to loosely fill the material throughout the enclosure.

Expensa-Stuf
Friday, January 15, 2010
Droidiphile from SF Bay Area  

Purchased and deployed 2 lbs of this product:

Pros:
- the product performs okay
- no protective gear needed for installation/use
- comprehensive labeling and MSDS notice

Cons:
- far too expensive
- sonic properties = Mid-Fi, not Hi-Fi
- inconsistent material thickness/density
- difficult to apply in even layers
- inefficient : various sized chunks of material in the bag, forcing the builder to piece/patch together to get adequate surface coverage without wasting material.

Bottom line: Expensa-Stuf
Frankly, I expected a better product for that price. Next time, I'll either go the fabric store and buy coarse polyester batting, which in my opinion, sounds almost as good. Or, I'll use fiberglass insulation which has way better sonic properties. Both alternatives COST FAR LESS than Acousta-Stuf. Both alternatives have far more consistent thickness/density. Both alternatives are far easier to install, even considering the well documented itchy fibers of fiberglass.

I would not use this product even if someone gave me a bag for free, because it takes so long to achieve an acoustically clean installation.

The Right Stuff(ing) !!!
Friday, December 11, 2009
Synthsayer from Central Kentucky - Bluegrass Area  

After using regular polyfill from fabric stores or pillows, fiberglass, foam of various types, and basically any other material I thought would act as cabinet damping material, finally, I tried the real thing: Acousta-Stuf.
I bought a few pounds of this with plans to use it in a future project. But, I have a amplified subwoofer as part of my home theater that I just could get a satisfactory sound from. I adjusted the EQ, phase, moved it all over the place.
For the heck of it I decided to replace its stuffing with Acousta-Stuf.
I could not be more pleased! Wow. What a diference this 'stuff' made.
Buy it, use it, and you will be happy that you did.
I never thought it would make such a big diferemce in the sound of my subwoofer. The bass is full but much more even with very little in the way of peaks. Very little EQ needed.
