$995 for an Acoustic Revive RWL-3 panel,,, a 2' x 4' diffusion panel that is nothing more than styrofoam, wood, and a silk sheet?

And you bought 3 of them? Nothing affordable bout that.

I'm only saying all this not to criticize but to compare to my own experiences of this panel when it first came out under the Furutech name. Like you, I own 3 of those panels and I'm in full agreement with your review as to their effectiveness in opening up a soundstage, especially in a small 11' x 17' x 7' room like mine. I have 2 panels mounted on the walls and 1 on the ceiling between my loudspeakers and all at 1st reflection points. These panels are so light, I had no problem mounting 1 on the strapping boards of my hanging tile ceiling.

But I paid $400 each for my panels and even at that price point, I felt I got taken to the cleaners for what it actually took to make this panel. But $995 each, someone aughta go to jail for bilking the public.

I also own Acoustic Revive's RR-77 Schumann Resonator and the RGC-24 Grounding Conditioner which I feel take more to manufacture and are both more than 1/2 the price
less than this stryofoam diffuser. Selling 2 diffusers at that price would be much more realistically accptable.

I'll also reluctantly admit I bought a 2-pak of Acoustic Revive WS-1 Acoustic Conditioners for $370 which turned out to be nothing more than a 11" foam pillow with a silk cover which had me banging my head but even those weren't as ridiculously overpriced as the RWL-3 panel IMHO.
As always, loved the Issue and the high rsolution pictures. And I loved the RWL-1 review, I;m just stating my displeasure with that pricepoint. Keep up the good work.
