@gkelly That's a good idea and would be easier than securing the towels in the frame as the video shows. In my case we have a bunch of old towels that I was going to use so I wouldn't even have to go to a thrift store but the 703 material is quite convenient.

I recently got a pair of Acoustic Sciences Corp TubeTraps. Nice thing about them is that they have one half of the trap that is absorbative and the other half is has a diffractive surface so they can be tuned to clean up the bass while preserving some liveliness in the room. I have used RealTraps and TubeTraps and both do a nice job but I prefer the ASC TubeTraps, although they are more expensive. I am actually using both with TubeTraps in front corners and RealTraps in rear, but hope to switch them to TubeTraps eventually. Also my wife prefers the looks of the TubeTraps. I do have an attic with a bunch of RealTraps that I will need to do figure out what to do with some day. |
I have Seven Audio treatments (from Poland). Excellent quality and workmanship. Also, less expensive than GIK and Vicoustic. I imported a whole pallet of treatments for my room. I also have my old trusty ASC tube traps. Do yourself a favor and consider Seven Audio. I was concerned about importation to Florida and it was painless. Delivered straight to my garage. Lukasz is a craftsman. He calculated the needs for my room and his suggestions were similar to Vicoustic. GIK suggested 4 times more bass traps.

Or.... ...limited only by creativity.... I’ve got a link to some thicker stuff.....but the thicker it gets, the harder to cut/shape.... We had to buy a cordless ’hot knife’ cutter to cope with cutting poly small dia. cording on a big project last year... Slick lil’ thang.....*G*👍 With some patience I’ve been able to form cones out of 4" thick blocks.... Why? ’Trade secret’....;) I’d have to ’lobot’ with a chopstick in a dark alley....*grrr* LOL* |
I got a free room analysis from GIK and they recommended soffit traps floor to ceiling in my room as a start. They also gave me recommendations for incremental additions since i did not want to go all in to start. After having the soffit traps for a few months and experimenting with placement, I have found that moving the traps six inches out for the corners and side walls resulted in a much more satisfying level of clear, defined bass as well as improving the midrange and soundstage. I would recommend the folks at GIK highly. |
