GIK Acoustic Treatments


The new listening room (22x14)is a bit of an acoustic nightmare: ceramic floors, bare walls, and open side wall into a large cavernous space. An 8x10 rug with 2 ASC tube traps is doing little to tame the slap echo. My web research led me to GIK Acoustics. Very affordable products with great customer service. I just submitted my "consult form" with an indicated budget of $1000. I have read of some members here who have been very pleased with their products. Was hoping to hear of other members experiences with GIK in terms of results, build quality and aesthetic.

Thanks

I decided to take the plunge and have my room completely treated with GIK products. 4 Tri-traps for the corners, 2 244 bass traps for the rear walls, and 3 242 acoustic panels for the ceiling and first reflection points. I ordered all of them with black fabric - I'm hoping this will be the most aesthetically pleasing option. I should mention that all 9 products with shipping came to approx $1000 - certainly more affordable than other comparable acoustic products. I'm not going to suggest that quality is on par with Rives or ASC, but there is certainly a good sense of value with GIK

Blindjim, I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with GIK. Thus far, I've found their customer service to be extraordinary. I was contacted this morning through email by their lead acoustic designer to determine which products would suit my room. All email responses came within 10 minutes. I placed the order this morning and should have everything in 2 weeks. Will post about the sonics as soon as they arrive.

I should mention that I am not affiliated with GIK in any way (that should be obvious since I work in physical rehab but full disclosure seems to be the standard protocol following praise for any product or company).
