Bag End

At Blue Smoke Entertainment Systems, we are big fans of Bag End's  E-trap electronic bass traps. In fact, we would go so far as to say that  they are "game changers" in the world of room treatment.

The electronic bass trap offers a precise tool to attack the  very worst problems with low frequency sound, and they provide a  uniquely impressive way to improve uniformity of acoustic  characteristics in a room. Bass "ringing" can be virtually eliminated

The E-Trap is comprised of two sensing microphones (front and back of  cabinet, user-selectable), processing circuitry, amplification and a  speaker. The processing circuitry allows the targeting of up to two  discrete center frequencies in the 20 to 65 Hz range (or up to 80 Hz or  greater with custom tuning) for its electronic dampening. Controls are  provided for coarse and fine-tuning, feedback amount and contour  (interdependent Q + feedback) for each of the two channels. 

It incorporates a patented  feedback control scheme,  making  the speaker exhibit the same   dynamics as that of a reactive absorber.   This active feedback adds damping   to a room mode at the tuned  frequency.

Because it is active, the E-Trap is capable of   adding considerable damping to a room and still be very small in size.

To achieve optimal performance, multiple E-traps must be carefully  located and finely tuned to effectively manage bass modes below 80 Hz.  Call us at Blue Smoke Entertainment Systems to discuss the capabilities  of this technology and/or to hear the power of E-trap technology in our  own dedicated listening room. We provide expert installation/set-up  services when requested.
