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.

Glad to hear you found the best spot.

I would like to add that with the Apertures the HFT's on the speakers are not necessary. In fact, it sounds more natural without them.

ebm,

Yes, Thanks.
I'm still gonna try to fit the HFT's on the walls somewhere. I have a lot of them.

So, I found that with the Stillpoints Apertures the SR HFT’s are just not needed. In fact, the soundstage is more natural without them. So I sold all of the HFT’s. I had 35 of them!
Then I bought a couple more of the Apertures. I now have 6 of them. 2 on each side wall at first reflection and 2 in the center between the speakers.
