My brother who still thinks that glueing egg-boxes against the wall makes a difference in the isolation/acoustics of a room

It in fact does. It will spread the reflection of the wall just like a piece of Auralex would, just less accurately. Just stop being a smartass jerk.

No, it won't, or at least not in a way you'll hear the difference.

Perhaps you don't hear it. It's Jarp against the world, isn't it?

@ GJ: The working is because of the materials. The Auralex you're referring to is made of foam (absorbers, the shape is only to give the foam some more surface) or a hard, reflecting material (diffusors). Eggboxes are just too weak to change anything in sound.

That's why you should use a few layers. Every band did that and now comes Saint Jarp telling we have been wrong all the time... geez. Well, whatever ya say man!

Well, good luck with hanging your entire room with eggboxes then, to spread some 40kHz waves a little
