Should i build a diffuser to my back wall using these woods ? they are 7cm(2.7inch) x 9cm(3.5inch). Deepest would be about 48cm(18.8inch) So it would operate roughly in frequencies 400hz-1900hz. View AttachmentIts not easy to build skyline diffuser. Because you not formula and calculate it. I thought about skyline 1 year ago, but its hard to trim those wood into 2x2cm or 3x3cm diameter. Need skill and experience. Not about length, numbering, attaching to base plate, but very hard to cut and trim those things. And its still free for you to try. Cheers.

For a rear wall behind you I suggest a 1D diffuser, not a skyline. I don't think it's necessary to diffuse down to the upper bass range. The deepest commercial diffusers I've seen are 9 inches deep, and even 6 inches is very good. But I'd aim for higher than 1,900 Hz at the top end. Maybe 3 to 3.5 KHz.

Ethan,
I have been advised by another expert in the industry that if the diffuser, at the back wall let's say the QRD in this case, doesn't cover the reflections from the speakers and/or the length of the speakers from speaker to speaker there not much use.
Can you give us your opinion on whether this is true and if placing smaller diffusers on the back wall randomly not in direct line of speakers can still offer some scattering and spaciousness effect? (Somewhat similar to the picture above)
Regards

^^^ Yes, that photo shows how the rear wall is treated in high-end studios. The goal is to cover whatever part of the wall reflects back to you all the sound from the speakers. So covering just a part of the rear wall is not usually enough. Maybe down low by the floor is less important, but the majority of the wall should be treated for best results.
