Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?

Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?
Both of these products have received rave reviews. The Stillpoints appear to be 4 times the cost of that of the Synergistic Research.

Currently, I am using some convoluted foam panels at the first and second reflection points and I also have many of the Synergistic HFT's through out the room. I also have ASC bass traps in all 4 corners.

I just tried a SR HFT in the center of the acoustic convoluted form panel and son of a gun it did lock in the soundstage. So, now I would like to pursue further with trying either one of these panels.

I have read somewhere that the SR HFT's do not work well with the SR UEF panels, which to me seems strange.

Any opinions would be appreciated.

millercarbon,

I only had the HFT’s versions on the speakers and they did add a quality. I just don’t want to stick them back on again. I can’t see any good way to get inside my speaker cabinets but I’m sure that is the best way to get the full affects of the mat and the PPT stuff. Like the idea of the fo.Q inside too!

BTW, I placed a call to Synergistic but due to the virus they are all in a sort of hibernation state and had no idea when someone could get back to me.

I've only used Apertures and love them. Afraid to contribute more as the OP may take the thread down once he obtained what he wants from it.

Ron17,
Interesting you are using them behind you only?
I have a 85" Samsung TV between the speakers which would make placing a panel in the center difficult. I have managed to place some of the SR HFT's behind the TV though.

slaw,
Thank you. How many do you have?
BTW, there were reasons why I removed the DIY Entreq box thread (if that's what you are referring to).
