Room treatments

Thanks for the response. Interesting that diffusion gets much less play than absorption. I'm hoping someone will comment on GIK's incorporating diffusion into their tri traps (which get great reviews) because this diffusion would now be in the corners. Up until now I have only seen diffusion panels for sides and rear wall.

You are welcome. That would be an interesting experiment to use that particular combination in corners. Perhaps, GIK could offer an at home demo with the new scatter plate diffusor. You are correct that diffusors are mostly used in the back or side walls. I am always willing to experiment.

What are you using to measure your room? I have Rives Audio professional measuring kit. I am thinking about getting the XTZ room analyzer, seems to be pretty straighforward and easier to use. At the very least, a Radio Shack SPL meter and Stereophile Test CD1 will be necessary to measure your rooms performance.

Ciao,

You might get more responses posting your question on the Audiocircle forum. GIK has their own forum there and Bryan and Glen post there regularly. I think Bryan is the facilitator.
