Beautiful Vicoustic's flagship Wavewood panels for room tretment. Anyone?

Not in my room yet, but definitely the most beautiful acoustic treatment i’ve ever seen. Wavewood panel is made from a combination of acoustic foam and wood. Its instantly recognizable design results from unique research based on the acoustic properties of the wood and foam combined with non-linear sequential cavities that enable Wavewood to act as both an absorber and diffuser. The Expo Panel System consists of panels that are 3/4“ thick that are perforated following an optimal binary sequence that determines where holes are and where they are not. This scientifically proven approach eliminates the possibility of absorbing excessive high frequencies while preventing lobing effects that are common among many uniformly perforated surfaces. Damn, i need some of these in my white room!

Has anyone tried them? Normally room treatmentis so ugly, but those two solutions are just WOW

@chakster ,

About 9’x 14’..roughly.

Last time I checked, the cable company has the wall panels available as only a 8 pc buy.

Here is a German source for Vicoustics with nice interface to see all of them. What i’m not sure about it the right placement of them in a room, my room is not symmetrical. I think the right place for Wavewood Absorber or Diffuser is (at least) behind the speakers (and super bass extreme traps in the corners behind) ?

1) Wavewood Absorber
2) Wavewoos Diffuser Prem.
3) Super Bass Extreme

I have zero experience with room tretment, the floor is natural wood parquet with various carpets, the rest is late 50's brickwalls with thick plastering on it.

 Another vote for Vicoustics. They transformed my room from
average to outstanding. They give you the option of using
their computer software to map the room. I preferred that
method versus guessing as they have specific measured areas
to place each specific panel. I heard the biggest
improvement with the diffusion/absorption panels on the
ceiling which usually gets overlooked.

Using their software is free bonus when you're buyin from them ? 
Or it will cost extra ? 

My local dealer does not provide this important option... :(

  I use a product from Vicoustic, Wave Wood. It is similar to the new GIK diffusort panel, the Wave Wood is wood over absorbers, and serves as both a diffusor and smaller absorber. All I can say, after may years of experimentation, this is the best combination that works for me. Of course, some environments will require a lot more absorption than others and integrating diffusors into those types of room may be challenging. I would strike a balance between the absorbers and diffusors. In most rooms I have treated, I have had positive results using this formula.

Have you tried RPG Expo ? 


This type of panel based on a perforation pattern is a tuned absorptive product.RPG Expo is design around optimal binary sequences – these begin to scatter frequencies above ~4KHz.RPG is the only company that has a method behind this type of digital surface approach.With the right mounting condition they are excellent for the right application.
