GIK Acoustic Treatments

I've used them and they can be quite effective. They don't look great but that is in the eye of the beholder.

I contacted GIK a couple years back for some swatches showing their current standard line, and their upscale line of fabrics... 3 times. I'm still waiting... well, I quit waiting as they never came.

I decided to take the plunge and have my room completely treated with GIK products. 4 Tri-traps for the corners, 2 244 bass traps for the rear walls, and 3 242 acoustic panels for the ceiling and first reflection points. I ordered all of them with black fabric - I'm hoping this will be the most aesthetically pleasing option. I should mention that all 9 products with shipping came to approx $1000 - certainly more affordable than other comparable acoustic products. I'm not going to suggest that quality is on par with Rives or ASC, but there is certainly a good sense of value with GIK

Blindjim, I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with GIK. Thus far, I've found their customer service to be extraordinary. I was contacted this morning through email by their lead acoustic designer to determine which products would suit my room. All email responses came within 10 minutes. I placed the order this morning and should have everything in 2 weeks. Will post about the sonics as soon as they arrive.

I should mention that I am not affiliated with GIK in any way (that should be obvious since I work in physical rehab but full disclosure seems to be the standard protocol following praise for any product or company).

Next to cables and tweaks, room treatment devices are some of the most ridiculously marked up products in our hobby.

As they seemed reasonable, I used GIK and also had a great experience.

Even my wife thinks they look great. (Photos in system link.)

I bought OWENS CORNING 703 2" panels off the bay.cut them to size.covered them myself with $22 worth of discount black audio fabric..works as well as anything Ive tried for under $125.00
