I am starting to go down the path of adding room treatments to my listening space. My research indicates this can make a big difference in the quality of the sound in the room and should be explored before spending big money on equipment upgrades. I have measured my room using REW and sent my graphs off to GIK acoustics for some free advice. Most of my issues are in the bass region (below 150 Hz or so) and the recommendation, as expected, is bass traps. GIK pricing seems very reasonable relative to other companies and they seem to have good reviews for the most part.
I am curious as to the experiences of others who have gone down this path. Did bass traps help smooth out the bass in your room? Any experience dealing with GIK specifically? Any other tips or things to watch out for? In your experience, was it worth it?
I am hoping to use this space for people to share their experiences and to use as a reference for others that are curious. I will share my own experiences as I go down this path. Also, I know some like to do DIY room treatments and that can save a bunch of money. I don't really have the patience for that right now but feel free to share your experiences. Anything is fair game if it may help someone down the road.
