Has anyone tried these products?

@curiousjim  that's the thickness of the backing. The slats themselves are an inch thick.

I have a number of Audimute panels throughout my listening room along with a couple of GIK diffusers and they were a big help.  I have the fabric covered 2" panels, not the same as those you are looking at. 

Where is the wall in your listening space?  Front, side, back?  What issues are you experiencing that you're trying to tame?  Slap echo, side reflections, etc.  Make sure you get the right tool.  Absorbtion can help or hurt.

Panels such as these have been engineeered for maximum sound absorption per unit of thickness. Their specifications are credible.

Nobody is going to plaster these panels on all of their wall space. They are intended to reduce reflections in a live sounding room, especially in a home theater setup where you want the speaker locations to provide the imaging.

The nice thing about this product is that it is cheap and you can experiment with it without spending a huge amount of money. I am about ready to move into our new house that has a dedicated listening room and I intend to use this exact product. I have some Japanese banners that I am going to use as covering and the flexibiliity of these panels is a great asset.

Deadening a highly reflective room can dramatically improve the imaging of a two channel system. Unless you want to spend big bucks on a professional evaluation, design, and installation, the Audimute panels are a great option.

Hey Greg,

 I have a second system in “Bonus” room in the system. With the exception of a couple of CD racks and my listening chair, there’s not much else in the room to defuse or absorb the sound. These looked like an inexpensive way to cover some of the wall space with the benefit  of helping taming the room.

Thanks for the reply.

The room has two concrete walls and does have carpet and pad, but it’s on a concrete floor and that’s it. I was hoping that for just a few hundred dollars, I could calm it down a bit.
