How to mount sound panels..

[midnightlaundry]

I'm finally in the process of making Bass Traps. Mounting to the walls is a no brainer, but what about in the corners on the ceiling!? I'm talking a 45 degree angle. Here's a pic that I scoured from the interwebs that shows how they did it, but I'm open to other suggestions..

If you're hanging several of those panels along the same wall, you may find it easiest to install a strip of wood across the ceiling to mount the top edges against. A 2x2 would work, especially if you can flatten one corner/edge somewhat before you hang it.

The advantages would be less damage to your ceiling and more consistency of placement of the panels.

Hmm, I'll need to see what I can do. Thanks.

I just did that about a month ago. Didn't want the fasten anything to the ceiling.
So, I installed some large L-brackets (for shelves) very high on the wall.
Attached the trap to that at the top, and tied it at the bottom using rope.
I'll try to get a picture later tonight, if I have time.
