need opinions on argent roomlens


hello, i have read rave reviews about the argent roomlens and am contemplating using them. several individuals have told me that they work best in closed rooms where the sound pressure is not leaking out. my room opens up to a stairway, hallway and bar. i would appreciate any feedback positive or negative on the effect of the roomlens system. please describe your listening room as well. i would buy asc or other similar treatment but.......my wife can't stand the thought of all of those cylinders in the room. the cost of the asc would be substantially more as well. thanks. tim

I agree with tswhitsel at every point. I don't exactly have Argent Room Lenses, instead I have homemade copies--easy if you can drill 2 3/8" round holes and make a base for PVC tubes. They look positively nice, according to my wife, who manages to regard them as a form of modern sculpture. I put them in my listening room long before I added all the acoustic treatment I have now, and they made a nonsubtle difference, as Tswhitsel said. I wish I knew HOW they work.
