AVAA Active Bass Traps


Hi there, 

Anyone here using the PSI AVAA active bass traps? I am thinking of getting one. Would I be better off with passive traps. My main room mode is at about 62Hz

Please advise

Houses are tiny here
My living room is 9ft high x  10ft wide ( sofa side) x 8 length. 
I use an integrated amp. 

I am trapped. 
So, only way i see is to have a bass trap that works from 45 to 70hz, which I could place behind the speakers.  Ir, the AVAA ( which costs a heart stopping   $SG3,800 (singapore dollar)



@emaillist666, than you for your feedback. Yes, I tried the u it at home and it helped. But, somehow, the u nt was sucking in more than just the offending bass. 

I am looking for a way to control the 50 to 70Hz frequencies, and with an integrated amp (Parasound Hint 6), I can't use an equalizer. Bummer. The amp does have a high pass filter for small speakers. I will fiddle.with that a d the tone control too.  But, bypass would be best.  

I can use the tone control on the amp but, again , it pulls down too much of everything. 

The only way I see is to use a  bass trap or a humongous helmholtz resonator (I think) 
My room is so small that 4 more subs would leave me with no space to sit...except o  the subs   🙂

I will have to live with a partial solution. Some targeted trapping. GIK has some targeted traps that can be made nice with some diffuser plates. Will look I to that. 
@erik_squires, how do you use Roon for the finishing touches...isn't roon a streaming music provider? 

I am communicating with GIK now. I am leaning towards their Scopus Traps which are very targetted
