Help with room treatments


I’m wanting to add some treatments to my listening space. I’ve reached out to GIK and ASC. GIK is proposing more treatments than ASC (reflection points, diffusers on back wall, bass traps in corners and behind speakers). ASC has only recommended tube traps in the corners and treatment at reflection points.

The ASC traps alone are more expensive than all of the combined treatments GIK is suggesting.

Has anyone used treatments from either  of these companies? Do you feel the ASC traps are worth the added expense?

However, I would say, start easy. If you think it’s a big deal, you can add more components as you go along. 

Agree, go with GIK due to their good service and pricing. You can start with bass traps in corners behind speakers and panels at 1st reflection points. You will need either diffusion or absorbtion on the wall behind speakers to improve imaging. Hard to say without knowing your room.

Please tell us the size and layout of your room, type of floor and walls.
