Im not from the states but is Superduct this "fleecelined" glasswool?
So I suppose it definitly would absorb something in a broadband manner. If you want to make it absorb bass you gotta make it rather big and as distand (or better filled) from the corner as possible.
Have a look here:

Is this the type of Superduct you're referring to?

thanks
yes, i mentioned that Superduct.
but i am confused two super duct from Schuller International, Inc. and from jm.com
two superduct might be the same
jm.com name it superduct RC(it might be more upgraded origin superduct)

That's why I asked if that was YOUR "superduct" - the RC stands for Reinforced Coating, and it's likely that absorption characteristics are different from the older, "standard" superduct.

Are there any markings on yours to identify which brand, or do you know? (JM is the only one I'm familiar with) Steve
