mb akustik

Have someone used or compared stuff from mb akustik? I'm thinking to get a bass trap and broadband absorber.
How is the quality, installation, acoustical response...
How does it stand up against some other brands like Auralex, Primacoustic, Flax Akustic, Celestial...??

we deal with them. Markus Betram is a reliable partner and has a clue what he is doing

they have diffrent absorbers.. are you reffering to the normal foam absorbers?

Was thinking about a RAB 650 Bass trap and BAB 150 Broadband Absorber. Do you know something about these?

I know Markus, have done business with him and used his products in the past!

great stuff, works perfectly as advertised....and pretty much THE bang for the buck over here

besides that, markus knows his sh*t, he is constantly trying to improve or envision future products....he has years of experience and does also larger scale designs/measurements/built-outs...good guy

100 eur for one 100mm-thick panel? no thanks. i'm still waiting for a TRULY affordable bang for the buck basstrap supplier in germany (or anywhere in europe). the USA is still far ahead of europe for affordable basstraps. you can get the exact same thing for half the price, for example at GIK.

It looks like this thread died a sad and lonely death. I would love to hear any updates / results from the people who have installed their products.

You do know we have a plant in the UK and ship to Germany daily?

Edit:Just saw this comment was posted right before we opened in the UK.
