The Blankets Were Good, But...


Hello All,

Recently on a whim I put blankets on the walls to see the effects of reducing unwanted reflections.
The results were not subtle.
So now my quest is to find sound treatment products that look like, well, that look better than thrift-store blankets stapled to the walls.
Looking at the London 12 kit from Primacoustic. Looks good, price is good.
Anyone have any experience with this product?
Thanks so much for all the excellent information available here...

There's really no need to spend a lot of money.

If you look at that issue, towards the end you'll see instructions on how to make your own room tuning devices that work as well as store bought finished products. You can save quite a bit with them.

Guitar center sells individual foam panels and "Studio Kits" for doing lager areas. The foam panels used to sell in the low $20s range but now go for around $35 (demand?).
Walk around the room clapping your hands. You are looking for areas with pronounced echoes (you’ll know when you hear them). Affix a single panel to stop the echo then repeat until all reflective junctions neutralized.
