Could it be picking up audio through the structure? That'd still attenuate the highs, though. If the chamber isn't at any vacuum whatsoever, what is the function of the membrane? Only other thing I can think of is helping contain shrapnel if the thing disintegrates inside. And that's really weird, we actually didn't use Ikea products in any of the labs that I know of. I guess, uhh, that's just the future. Like SpinLaunch.
