I've spoke to Frak via email and unfortnately he is unable to help me with my dilema. I'll post it to see if anyone can help out.

I'm building a new home studio and really like the idea of the tri-traps in the corners behind my setup, however, the rear wall at the top, slopes in a few inches about a foot from the ceiling. Does that make much sense?

My question is: Do the T-T's feel designed in such a way, that i can cut and alter them to fit the angle of the wall? Or would i be left with 2 traps that are useless?

You would have to have us custom make them to size for you. If you have them now you can either use them in the back of the room or return them and let us custom size new ones for you.

Does either of those 2 ideas work for you?

...but we would not be able to do the custom shape. We could cut a couple a little shorter so that they came right up to the place where the ceiling changes though. There would be some space above the top Tri Trap, but that wouldn't be significant acoustically.
