Well I just recently added a few absorption panels from ATS Acoustics (3) 2'x2'x4" & (1) 2'x4'x4". The build quality is outstanding & their fabric choices are pretty extensive. These new panels combined with my GIK monster bass trap (1) 2'x4'6" & the Echo Busters corner traps (2ea) have really put a smile on my face. It's so hard to believe what actually happens. The music just takes on a whole new presence, the bass is just so damn tight now I can hardly believe it. My friends actually checked to see if my SVS sub was on. They couldn't believe it either. The vocals & instruments are so well defined & the soundstage has taken on a whole new dimension. I'm telling you if you've never thought about treating your room - mistake - BIG MISTAKE!!! It has got to be the best bang for the buck you can possibly spend. Forget about new cables, IC's, power cords, just get involved with your room. By the way ATSacoustics.com is the most reasonably priced company I have found to date. They only do absorption panels but are working on bass traps. They also sell all the material for the DIY crowd. But for me they were so cheap it didn't make sense to go the DIY route. Just do it!!!!

Hi, I am considering the GIK Corner bass traps and the Echo Buster corner traps. Can you please comment on the GIK and Echo Buster build quality? I also like Real Traps but they are so much more expensive.Originally posted by pearsall001Comment

The GIK monster bass trap is very well constructed. The only downside with the GIK products is the cost for custom fabric. If the stock fabric meets your needs it's a huge savings over their custom colors. Echo Busters corner traps seem to be well constructed also, although it is a totally different design & size. They also have a very extensive fabric selection. For a huge fabric & an extensive product selection check out Acousticalsolutions.comComment

I finally took the plunge 3 weeks ago and purchased some 48"x24" ATS acoustic panels for the theater/listening room. In preparation for the new center channel Steve Manning is helping me with. Per the posts from Evil Twin getting a panel was required. I first ordered 6 panels, but then realized... -
Hi all. I'm having an issue with bass where I believe I have a bass spike in one point in my room. The room size is roughly 3m wide and 4.5 metres long (Polished wood floor boards with large rug in the middle) with the subwoofer placed at the front right of the room just in front of the main speaker... -

Hi
Following the advice of this forum members I took the time to improve my room acoustics. The motivation came after I was annoyed by too much echo in my room, poor deep imaging and unsatisfactory bass from my rotel 1095/b&w 803s.
With an advice from Danish Yazdani ( my friend,an...
