@ricred1 thanks for the private message but I cannot reply to messages here since I haven't given up a credit card number. Glad to hear the Artnovion Acoustics panels worked out better for you. I went with GIK because they are mentioned a lot and also they work with you to decide on the proper types of panels and also the proper placement of them. They even generate a 3D image of the room to decide on placement. I measured EVERYTHING in the room for them to input, including the doorways, windows, gas stove, wing chairs, speakers, everything!
Room treatment with acoustic panels
Most folks on here consider this a no-brainer as far as it being necessary but people new to the hobby may wonder if it’s worth the expense. YES!
I never used them before because I knew nothing about them. With my newly created system I figured I would give them a shot so I’ve been getting a lot of help and advice with them from GIK Acoustics.
I ordered bass traps for the corners and side walls. I also bought the panels that go on the side walls for the "first reflection" spots and the panels that mount to the ceiling.
Not everything has arrived yet but yesterday I started placing some of the side wall panels.
Even just temporarily resting on blocks of wood while placement is finalized, the difference is extremely and immediately noticeable. Fuller, cleaner sound that makes the speakers disappear.
Boy, I can’t wait to get everything installed! If you’re new at this and think your gear already sounds good, treat the room anyways. You will love the difference.
GIK Acoustics will refund your money if you don’t. Probably something they’ve never had to worry about I’m sure.
If it is of help to anybody, here’s everything I’ve ordered from GIK:
