Actually, if you compare the GIK 244 data to the Real Traps MondoTrap when mounted across a corner you will have a better comparison. And if you do your own plot comparing the numbers the GIK 244 does as good or better than the MondoTrap. So for that particular mounting configuration the GIK 244 will theoretically outperform the MiniTraps as well. The GIK website had RealTraps data overlayed on their measurements when the test was first completed. That comparison data quickly got taken down...hmmm...someone must have been a little sensitive to the competition.

I currently own some MondoTraps in my control room. I'm about to order some GIK 244's to throw in there as well. It should be interesting.

There was a cool Japanese vendor at NAMM making really nice looking traps very similar in design to the RealTraps stuff, but just more aesthetically interesting. www.aygosound.com
