> First, use the special pour acoustic foam from > Markertek in New York (www.markertek.com). A better foam product from a company that specializes in acoustic treatment is http://auralex.com/ There's more to treating an acoustic space than putting absorption ON your instrument. The area around it is more important. Do you have glass or ceramic tile in your room? Parallel walls? High ceiling with right angle corners? Putting a bunch of MarkerFoam (which is actually a very mediocre product - I have used it for a studio installation a few years ago - and unless they've re-designed the formulation, it's nowhere near as good as some newer generation foam products) on your instrument will accomplish one thing- it will ruin the sound of your instrument. The goal is to have your instrument sound great, but not overwhelm the room that it's in. I suggest reading up on some acoustic treatment -- it is NOT your piano that's the problem. It's the room that it's in. More reading: http://www.acoustics101.com/ http://www.silentsource.com/index.html
