GIK Acoustic Treatments

Next to cables and tweaks, room treatment devices are some of the most ridiculously marked up products in our hobby.

As they seemed reasonable, I used GIK and also had a great experience.

Even my wife thinks they look great. (Photos in system link.)

I bought OWENS CORNING 703 2" panels off the bay.cut them to size.covered them myself with $22 worth of discount black audio fabric..works as well as anything Ive tried for under $125.00

I have had 3 of the 242s and 4 of the 244s for the last couple of years. The build quality is good, but aesthetically the front edges are not as straight and clean as I would like (they may have changed this). I have the basic black fabric and it looks good and is of high quality. Acoustically they are great and you can't beat the price in a pre-made panel. As far a customer service, they were great and a friend of mine who also ordered from them said the same.

Thanks... it's cool. Sure I was disappointed at the results, especially after I offered to pay, twice, for the samples.

However in my life everything always works out. I bought sufficient OC & Manley (?) rock wool to outfit two severe corner traps, ala Super chunks, first reflections, and corner busters, for around $175, and the backboarding for around $10, the fabric isn't settled yet, but should come in around $100 give or take a bit. so for about 3 bills or so, the room gets done acoustically. Esthetically, it'll appear as traditional furniture accessories and match better to the existing color changes I've made there too. Should be done shortly.

Good luck and enjoy.

My experience with GIK was very pleasant. I have 8 of the 244 panels and would likely order a few more products from them if my wife hadn't freaked out so much when the 244 panels arrived. Excellent bang for the buck!
