Ive been using 244 panels in my live room and control room for months now. Its a wooden frame skillfully wrapped in attractive cloth and stuffed with tons of mineral wool, and it looks nice enough to where I think even the do it yourself crowd would have to wonder: why did I spend all this time and money doing this?. The 244 has 4 of absorption and an extra 2 of depth for a total of 6 deep of panel. There are 4 eye screws mounted 12 in on either side, and wire is included with each panel to, get thishang it like a picture! It really is that easy, again Glenn makes life easy and the 244 is highly effective at controlling sound.

Conclusion: The 244 is a very popular panel for a reason, they look very nice and are priced right, and do what they say. From the moment you unwrap them in your room you will be glad you let somebody else do the hard work for such a nice product. Compare the pricing to competitors, I chose GIK because it is simply the best.

The D1 is amazing stuff, very heavy molded plastic and quite sturdy. They ship in black or white and you can easily paint them (I used a plastic specific spray paint at the local hardware store and it was excellent). The last room I had was a concrete block room doing what concrete block walls room do best, sounding like &$^#. It was all I had at the time, and between the GIK bass panels and the D1 diffusors I was able to get extremely useable sounds with drums, voice you name it. The room wasnt slappy and flutter-y any longer, and mounting the D1 was a snap (GIK includes 2 wooden strips you screw to the wall or ceiling, and screws to mount the D1 to the wood, done!). Very effective and in classic GIK style, priced right and simple to hang.

Conclusion: Stop all that flutter-y mess in your room with the D1, good sound starts in the ROOM and dont think absorption is the only key to treating your space. Diffusion is a satisfying way of keeping a space live without the obvious echo issues. You will not find a more effective diffuser, not anywhere near this affordable price range.

The Monster Bass Trap is just that, a MONSTER! This thick, heavy panel just eats bass and outperforms everything else on the market. Built on a wooden frame, stuffed with about 6 of mineral wool and wrapped in cloth, the Monster Trap has about 1.5 of space in the back of the frame where GIK mounts eye hooks 12 down on either side so you can hang it like a picture (the wire is included). It really is that easy, with the Monster Trap due to the weight, I would suggest using 2 sturdy screws in the wall to hang this panel from. This one reaches deepest of all the GIK panels, and squashes the competition at a lower price. This thing is packed dense and ready to improve your sound in an instant.

Conclusion: Its a big one, and highly effective. The guys at GIK Acoustics prove once again that you dont have to go broke making the room sound as right as it can. If your room isnt right, youre fighting a lost cause. I use Monster panels in my own live room as they look great and work wonders.

OK so lets understand this: I can have superior bass control in my room and not have to pound one nail or drive one screwand it looks nice? Well its true, and Ive got them in the front corners of my room to prove it. The Tri Trap is another one of those GIK Acoustics ideas that Glenn has that just works so well. You just stand them up in the corner. In fact, they are 3 11 tall so you can stack them 2 high easily in an 8 ceiling room for extra control. I gotta admit, I only use one in each corner: I needed more bass control but I also wanted a nice place to put my favorite small lamps. The Tri Trap is covered in just about any fabric color you want, so you just plop them into place and youre done.

Conclusion: I heard a difference the moment I stood them up in my corners, this is the second room Ive utilized the Tri Traps in and again they just do the job. They really are a cool place to put a lamp, if you only need one in each corner. These things are stuffed tight with mineral wool and ready to bring your space to life in a good way.

These things are HEAVY, no joke! Not just a piece of packing foam, the Recoil Stabilizer from Primacoustic has a heavy steel plate covered with neoprene rubber to further absorb and dampen movement of your speaker. This sits on top of a rather sponge-y feeling foam that decouples the speaker from your console or speaker stand. The result is a speaker that allows more energy to flow from the speaker to your ear without the full recoil experienced when just plopping them down on a solid surface. The image and depth of field improves, and decoupling can help (depending on your situation) clear up bass response issues concerning low end vibrations traveling via more than one route to your ears (more bass traveling directly by air rather than by air and by the desk to the floor to the walls etc).

Conclusion: They can make a night and day difference in your monitoring setup, I think Primacoustic hit the nail on the head with this design. I have owned a pair since their release and while I dont spend all day A/Bing without them, I can tell you I enjoy the sound of my speakers with them underneath!
