I made Skyline Diffusors for my Living Room

Want some of those neat looking diffusors for your room? Seeing the price of them, I think it's needless to say that a DIY solution is more viable if you're like me and enjoy working with wood.
Overall, I paid about 300€ for all the materials. When you buy ready made skyline diffusors out of wood, you'll pay about 170€ for one, and I made 8 of those. You do the math.
This of course requires you to have access to the power tools in the first place. You can do all of that by hand, but it will take even more time.
It was a really fun project and I hope you enjoyed it as well!
Let me know if you need something.

First of all: Great work, your diffusers are looking amasing!!! That the Clapping doesnt make a difference is OK because you have Diffusers and not Absorbers. Onely one thing : To have the most benefit from your Diffusers you schould bring the Sofa a little bit of the wall and lower the Diffusers because you ears are the point where the sound has to be diffused an they are sill straight at the naked wall.Also your surround sound would benefit from the didderent sfa position.

First of all, because of the depth of that diffuser, and the size of each well, it'll only diffuse frequencies between about 700hz and 4000hz. That aside, I'm sure it did lots of things, it's just that what you're hearing are the problems from all of the other walls. The diffuser is also placed above your listening position, so you won't get the most out of it. I understand that you might not be able to fit it directly behind your head, so consider moving it to the ceiling where you have early reflections, for example, or directly above your head (in the ceiling). I'm not sure what you thought the diffusor would do. It does not prevent reverberation, it basically makes the room sound larger than it is, and breaks apart standing waves so that the sound is _better_ . You'll notice this is you sweep a sine wave in the room. Some frequencies (many) will be heavily boosted by the room as they produce standing waves between the walls. But the diffuser will help to prevent this within the effective frequency range of that diffuser. So, I'm sure this did a lot of good for your sound. Just that a clap does not tell the story. (I'm an audio engineer, btw.)

Also I think, as a home theatre enthusiast, if you hear someone making noise, playing loud music etc. I feel it's almost my right to also play loud when I listen.

Diffusers aren't suppose to remove reverb. They only reflect the sound in different directions to make it sound more natural. You'd need an absorber for that like a foam pad. It sounds better because instead of the sounds reflecting of the same spot on the wall, it's being pushed all around the room in different ways.

What you've made are 2d diffusors, which propagate sound both horizontally and vertically. There's a reason such diffusors are mounted usually on ceilings (skyline) so they can diffuse both horizontally and vertically from above, which turns into 90 deg offset of diffusion (left and right, front and back). When mounting such diffusors on a vertical wall you get reflections from the ceiling and floor. For vertical surfaces use slot or slat diffosors which are 1d (large panels with vertical slots in them). Those diffuse only in one plane (left and right or up and down, depending on orientation). I did the same as you did and then measured with a microphone and was not happy, since I created a sharp dip and a sharp peak between 1200Hz and 2800Hz. They look nice as decoration on the wall, but when I changed them with 1d diffusors the room opened quite a bit for sound. Nice vid, it's very time consuming to make those out of wood.

Given the thickness of your collumns, you're not diffusing at high frequencies. Reason why there is no correction for hand claps. Diffusors on the ceiling would have helped too. Last but not least, rear diffusors should have been at ears height. Nice job anyway, very nice.

Good choice not going with the walnut stain. It looks like you've got a mix of scandinavian and midcentury designs in your place - teak was a popular wood of choice in midcentury designs and could offer a really lovely warmth to contrast with the cool grays and neutrals in your space. I wouldn't recommend making something like this with genuine solid teak outright because it'd be prohibitively expensive but a danish teak style stain could be nice for future projects. Looking forward to seeing more.

Von den OSB-Platten, die Du als Grundplatte für Dein Design gewählt hast, hätte ich abgeraten. OSB neigt zum ausgasen von Formaldehyd. Und das ist leider nicht besonders gesund. Dadurch, dass Du zum Glück keine riesige Fläche verbaut hast, könnte es sein, dass Du unter dem gesundheitsgefährlichen Grenzbereich bleibst. Im Zweifel kannst Du entweder die Platten gegen unbenkliches Material austauschen oder komplett mit Lack versiegeln. Holzöl reicht leider nicht aus zum Versiegeln. Solange es so ist, wie jetzt, solltest Du zumindest regelmäßig lüften.

Congrats on a hard work&build, but you made a few mistakes here... First the position of diffusors is incorrect. Too high - you sit actually below the zone when they (diff.) 'work'. Secondly, to experience diffusor's you need to sit at some distance form them, would say at least 2 m. Where you are sitting at the moment, on sofa, below the zone of the diffusion and so close to them - completely outside the area of the diffusion of the sound. Diffusors like this work on certain freq., you should build bass traps and fit them underneath the diffusors on the entire back wall. That would help with low freq. response. Also you should mount diffusion on the front wall, behind the speakers. Actually, having only one setup of diffusors (like example in the video) the best utilization of them would be mounting on the front wall behind speakers (with bass traps underneath). In this situation, you could actually enjoy the experience of diffusion, while sitting on the sofa (you would just need to consider mounting diffusors as low as your ears position). At the moment, you have a flutter echo (when hand clapping) mostly because you don't have a 'cloud' your corners are flat/empty, and there is no trap/bass trap at all anywhere in the room. Acoustic treatment does work when is done properly and fully. The diffusors you built, does work and diffuse sound, but you cannot experience them at this level (of no acoustic treatment). I see you are a 'handy' lad, you can build all traps and bass traps yourself. If you prepare your room acoustically, I am 100% positive you will be blasted by how amazing is sound diffusion in well treated space. So finally your work wasn't for nothing, it;s just too early to experience the diffusion is so 'untreated' acoustically room.

Calculate ;) You'll find the pattern for the diffusors online. Then you know how much you need of each length. Sum up everything and there you go.

Das ist doch ein Diffusor, damit wirst du dein nachhall nicht verringern... Dafür kannst du paar Absorber an die decke kleben, das bringt was...Trotzdem schöne arbeit👍

Assuming similar mic placement, I believe that I did notice a slight difference in echo or reverberation, but mostly when you were speaking. Honestly, I think the effect is helpful even if it is not as dramatic as assumed, much like the effect of having more soft home furnishings like cushions and drapery. The contribution one gets from projects like this is subtle but also significant. You may notice it more when playing music or having a dinner party, for example, but not so much when alone and performing single hand-claps.

You should make another video where you make acoustic panels. Those will absolutely change the sound of the room and you could make them look quite beautiful while you're at it. Would make for some good content as well. Cheers.

They're designed to scatter sound energy and not absorption.

Der diffusor ist eigentlich Recht sinnlos an der Stelle. Damit er richtig wirkt musst du min 1.5m weit davon weg sitzen und er muss hinter deinen Ohren sein und nicht über deinen Ohren.

I got it from the local hardware store (Obi here in Germany). You'll need about 15m per panel as far as I remember...
