ASC Sound Panels


Hey guys. I'm looking towards buying some room treatments. ASC Tube Traps seem to be highly regarded but what about their sound panels? Not too many audiophiles seem to have their sound panels.
howie
I think they do do something to the sound that is not entirely good, reminds me of Sonex in that there is a subtle but noticeable change to the quality of the sound; it was not without trying, as I had 4 panels to play with, never did find any combination that I preferred to no panels. I do, however, like the ASC Tube Traps, but not in the corners. I also had good results with Corner Tunes.
It seems to me that ASC makes the best tube traps so I'm pretty confident that they'll work for me and I'll get what I paid for so there is value in that.

But ASC isn't known for their sound panels and although I do think they'll work are they a good value?
Save yourself a ton of money and build your own.So far I have built Jon Risches tube traps,my own acoustic panels and ,skyline diffusers.I did the whole room for under 500.00.If you have the money to buy the real deal then go for it, if not I would give you some great advice on DIY.
It's not a money issue so much as I have no desire to build myself one. I am just not that handy and I would rather pay for convenience.
I have the flutter stix (which is now a specialty item). Expensive, but they helped tame about 80-90% of the slap echo in my room without killing off the sound.

Excellent WAF.

Don't expect any effect in the bass region; it did improve in regard to clarity of voices & instruments in my tiny room.

Of course, YMMV.

Happy Listening!
