Acoustic resonators in place of room treatment

Attended Frank of Acoustic resonators demo during Kuala lumpur AV show , Malaysia yesterday. Demostrated his magic show and I can really hear the difference . During Q & A session someone asked him whether it is necessary to do room treatment if we use the acoustic resonators. Was told it's sufficient to use only the resonators up to max 11 pieces only. I got my room treated using Rives level1 ( only level possible in Malaysia) & faced with construction issues & it's only theoretical design only. If it's truly work , it's certainly preferably over traditional room
treatment. Cost wise it's comparable . Anybody has tried the resonator method of room treatment & what is your impression?

I talked with Ted Denney today and learned that at the RMAF a new less refined ART for $500 will be released. I don't know whether they will have a demonstration comparing the two versions, but I hope so. I need ARTs at my summer home.

Certainly not as user friendly as acoustic resonator. I still have not set up my ART resonator since I m not sure how to hang the heavy vibratron without nailing into my front wall when I m not sure of the ideal location. Off course I could just fashion a stand to place the vibratron just like ted in 1 of the acoustic art reviews. Not up to it yet. Let's hope the new model is more user friendly

Audioblazer, I think you will be able to use BlueTac on all four walls with it.

absolutely not possible. too heavy for vibratron ie on front wall, the rest is fine. Trying to think of other solution like velcro etc. Thanks

Audioblazer, the less expensive ART does not have the Vibraatron, as I understand it.
