I can only imagine the guy who started the "distortion" thread. Sounds like they need to go get laid and not spend so much time on GS spreading the BS around.
Congrats on your purchase. You made the right move. |
Jeff, thank you for the confirmation.
just an update, i currently have 8 total ready traps: 5 i originally ordered, and 3 free extra's Joel threw in due to a complication in delay. now how's that for customer service!!
for the 5 i'm using layered 2 x 2" 703's. for the other 3 i got some Roxul from Gene @ Service Partners (formally Insulation Wholesale) under some GS recommendations. Gene is extremely helpful; and Roxul apparently have better NRC than 703's, @ almost half the price.
the only reservation i have with these Ready Trap Bags is that the side corners can be a bit rough and "hilly". but it's easily fixed with some cornerbeads from Home Depot. i only installed the cornerbeads in strategic/noticeable corners, so i won't get too much reflection; maintaining the integrity of the trap quality.
the way i have it set it up:
-between the speakers (behind computer monitors),
-front top, angled (wall meets ceiling),
-directly floating above (cloud)
-front bottom (behind the desk, wall meets floor)
-two front-side corners (wall meets wall)
-two back corners (wall meets wall)
on top of all these traps, i also have 2 Auralex Lenards mounted @ ceiling corners both sides, 3 Auralex cubes at Tri-corners of the room (one corner has a closet-door), and finally 4 ATS mid-freq acoustic panels on side walls and back walls.
my room is now truly jawdropping to say the least. i didn't know my room can be so "tamed"... esp considerig it's only 12' x 11' x 8'. all the test/listening materials have much better clarity, tighter bass, very controlled sound. even when i simply talk, the sound does not travel. front of room is dead, but the back is still live.
so now i have no more excuses for the room, i can finally focus on making music!
