Realtraps versus Rives Audio Treatment Plan


Are "REALTRAPS" really as effective as any other acoustic treatment.? I got the impression from several reviews that 8 to 10 panels in the right places can transfrom any acoustic environment into an excellent listening room. If this is true, why do people recommend Rives? There would be a hugh cost savings here.

It might help you get a meaningful response if you could outline exactly what problem you are experiencing that you wish "Real Traps" or any other acoustical devise to solve. There is no universal cure for all problems.
Rives is an acoustical consultant and design company as far as my understanding, Realtraps are a product? I think the company that builds Realtraps is owned by another acoustical consultant, I could be wrong.
