What's your approach here? I have some basic absorption panels but knowing exactly what to put where (and not 'just bung in some diffraction') is trickier. My Genelec GRADE report has been helpful, as has understanding REW, but 'd be interested in how you are going about it.
Yes, I agree they do look good.
Very similar 5 x 4 x 2.3. Well furnished. Absorption behing listening position and side wall. I might make a suspended ceiling panel - but more because I want to rather than any evidence it's what's needed!Some things we just have to live with
How big is your room and how’s it furnished ?Mine’s 6m x 4m and 2.3m high and pretty dead - heavy carpet and curtains.
2nd system update, with the AE2s and new to me Lyngdorf TDA2200 (upgraded to TDAi spec). Not 100% sure how long the AE2s will stay, wanted to revisit them for old times sake but I think there may be better options for the more 'nearfield' listening that I do in this room. Ideally some ATC SCM10s (in Yew if I can find a pair) or possibly revisiting KEF Reference again.And the 2nd System starting to come together in the 'Library' which is our Hobby/Games/Spare Room, up till now its been storage for old bits of hifi rather than a proper 2nd system. The large bass cabinets and mini-monitors are left over from an Active DIY project that might get resurected in the future. The AE2s will go in here, with an upgraded amp at some point. I use the Yamaha WX10 for Streaming to.

What's the name of that , couldn't quite read it.
Here you go https://uk.petlibro.com - actually works brilliantly. I'm very impressed
I have a couple of GIK acoustic bass traps and diffusor panels on my front wall, no room elsewhere to fit them without tearing up the room. It’s my lounge in the end and not a recording studio. GIK have an online form you can complete and with this they can give you free advice. I was more than happy with my panels and they did not push me to just plaster the room with lots of stuff. I spoke with them on the phone as well and can recommend them. I went for their impression panels so look nice as well. I could try much more but as you say there may be the law of diminishing returns here. i have a relatively small room at just over 5 x 3 m size so the panels tamed the bass and gave a lively but not bright mid and highs. Anyway ask for their advice, it’s free with no obligation to buy. They also have a slight seconds store on eBay.
Your welcome, my room wasn't that bad, bit of slap echo and that has diminished as well. These treatments are a route to an improved SQ dependent on how bad your room acoustics are at the monent, and how reflective your walls and coverings are, size of the room, size and output of your speakers etc etc. so all I am saying is that if your room is really bad and you get lots of slap echo and bass boom etc then the effect of these treatments are a way of improvong it. there are many YouTube videos out there and GIK do have a library of their own which go through the fundementals. Also see John Darko's channel for his video's on room acoustics. He did a few last year on the subject
I’ve just realised an important benefit of Tannoys. No tweeter dome to press in…..So, Bigger than the Totems then …
I think these look great in white. Could easily see these as endgame if I had the room and money for them. Seems to me this is what high fidelity reproduction actually means and it's weird to me how some audiophiles dismiss active pro monitors as something not fit for home listening.
