Acoustic resonators in place of room treatment

Considering it's make of steel , not cheap . Anyway msshifi do have a demo set for less than 2k if you are interested

Why u want more ringing?I can understand the sceptics if they have never heard it and think it's voodoo science. Well I trust my ear during the 1hr +. The most amazing demo is the part he split the music into mono right & left channel with a hollow center. Well thanks for feedback

What difference do u hear? Synergistic art is a much cheaper option if it works as well or better? Is the cup moveable to tune the sound like the acoustic resonator?

Hotsauce, Is rives audio selling these resonators? I dont see it in their website. However, I do see that virtual dynamics is selling the acoustic resonators by Franck Tchang.
Tbg, maybe I do understand why u cant stand Rives design. I did a Level 1 with Rives audio. I like the look of things but the detail drawings could have been better. I have to ripped off the front resonator due to vibration which I constructed as detailed in their drawings. However , to be fair to Rives audio, Richard in particular, he was very accommodate in entertain my questions when I was faced with a blurred image issue. So for those using Rives audio, asked as many questions as possible and use some creativity in constructing the room treatment. As far as room treatment and design is concern, I believe there is no 1 right way\ only, just like how synergistic research and acoustic resonator approached the room tuning issues using different products and materials.

well guys, I decided to buy a used set from audiogon. It should be an interesting experiment.
Tbg, from your review u indicated that you took a while to optimised it. any issue with the set up? is there any problem if I were to place the Base Unit, just behind a stand for a center speaker for my HT ? thanks

Tbg, thanks for the comprehensive feedback. Lets hope it will improve upon my Rives audio basic room treatment

Hi TBG,
I just got my synergistic research acoustic art. The vibraton is big n heavy. How do u experiment with the placement when it's suppose to be supported fr a screw due to it's weight and the recommended placement is abt 6-12 inches above speaker's tweeter? Obviously it wld practical for me to nail all over my Rives design passive resonator at the front wall. Your feedback is much appreciated. Thanks

Certainly not as user friendly as acoustic resonator. I still have not set up my ART resonator since I m not sure how to hang the heavy vibratron without nailing into my front wall when I m not sure of the ideal location. Off course I could just fashion a stand to place the vibratron just like ted in 1 of the acoustic art reviews. Not up to it yet. Let's hope the new model is more user friendly

absolutely not possible. too heavy for vibratron ie on front wall, the rest is fine. Trying to think of other solution like velcro etc. Thanks

Lets see why SR advised with the new tweak and hopefully I can learn something useful. thanks
