There we experience that upper and mid range were crystal clear, but the bass still needs to be more control... This week I will be adding another pair of tri traps that will be stack above the first pair that I bouhgt and will be placed the same way as you can see in the pictures from others....
My main point is that tri traps do a lot to your setup but they work together with other treatments, and it is until that point that you will see the night and day difference....
Thank you very much for your comments. This is one of the reasons why I decided to get 4 tri-traps instead of two. I can stack the tri-traps from floor to ceiling in the front two corners.
Another reason is that I want a pretty big difference in clarity in the bass range in particular. I live in South Africa and I don't import that often so if I'm doing it then I'll do it right.
I've already spoken with Glenn and Bryan and I'm definitely going to get a pair of Monster traps for directly behind the listening position.
What kind of differences did you get when placing absorption behind the listening position ? Thanks again.
Regards,
In my HT there are only like three corners that I can treat. Two of them are in the rear wall (behind the listening position) and one is in the front wall... By adding absortion in the back rear wall (tri traps) I do get a great deal of bass control, in particular I would say in the 50-200 hz region... By having absortion in the front wall it clean up the mid to upper bass regions.... Another thing that I should add, is that my room was very reflective, as the walls are made of drywall, laminated flooring and a ceiling made of plaster...
I also had one window and one patio door, so I had to add a pair of acoustic curtains there...
Right now my biggest problem is that the lower end of the bass it still seems high and still feel some resonances in the listening position. After we add the pair of tri traps I hope that I am done, but if not my only option will be to add a pillar in the corner in the front wall and perhaps some 244 in the ceiling but still need to work with Bryan on that one....
GIK treatments are very well made and when I add them to my setup gave that sort of professional-studio look to the room....
