“ Perhaps I'm a purist. I want to hear the recording the way it was produced and intended to be heard.“
In a recording / production studio invariably packed with wall to ceiling room correction treatments you mean ?
Absorption, Diffusion or a combination of it all?
Looking to add more acoustic treatment on the wall behind the speakers. Currently using GIK absorption panels (242).
Planning to add two more panels that would hang pretty much directly behind the speakers on the upper part of the wall (higher quality image on my system page).
Any benefit going with diffusors?
Thanks!!!

@tsushima1 Good point. It's difficult to tell what was "intended" b/c so many recordings are in the studio and then what was 'intended" is up to the engineer--and if the band/artist doesn't like it then you get later remasters if the artist becomes important enough. But @pedroeb has a point with live music and when i approached room treatment it was from that perspective--tame some room issues b/c our rooms are never as big as even a small venue and there are reflections and mostly bass issues that have to be dealt with. |
Going back to the original discussion…a follow up… Got the first pair of Range Limiter TriTraps. Replaced a pair of 244s that were used as bass traps with Tri Traps. Moved the 244s to the first reflection points on side walls. There’s a very nice improvement in bass definition, texture and details. I’m also hearing better clarity in the mids and highs and I suspect it is due to the way the tri traps mitigate standing waves. |
I’m considering Planar speakers. Any recommendations as to room treatment? Right now, with my Focal Sopra 2's I have ASC bass tube traps in the corners and Stillpoints Aperture ll’s in the center, 1st and 2nd reflection points. I know Planars will have different room acoustic requirements, any help in that regard would be appreciated. ozzy |
