Beautiful Vicoustic's flagship Wavewood panels for room tretment. Anyone?

Not in my room yet, but definitely the most beautiful acoustic treatment i’ve ever seen. Wavewood panel is made from a combination of acoustic foam and wood. Its instantly recognizable design results from unique research based on the acoustic properties of the wood and foam combined with non-linear sequential cavities that enable Wavewood to act as both an absorber and diffuser. The Expo Panel System consists of panels that are 3/4“ thick that are perforated following an optimal binary sequence that determines where holes are and where they are not. This scientifically proven approach eliminates the possibility of absorbing excessive high frequencies while preventing lobing effects that are common among many uniformly perforated surfaces. Damn, i need some of these in my white room!

Has anyone tried them? Normally room treatmentis so ugly, but those two solutions are just WOW

I don't worry about that my friend. My room, IMO, sounds extremely good now. If I ordered these, it would just be a test

I have been admiring these products from www.piaudiogroup.com  ..mainly the diffusors.

All of those options are beautiful. The sticking point is, once you buy them, there's no going back. I'm referring to the mounting (option) = glue. I suppose one could buy dozens of Velcro or Command strips?

If you look at my virtual system, you'll see that I don't rely on the Apertures for all of my needs.

The Aperatures are diffusion, resonator & absorption in one relatively small panel. If I was privy to the internals, of coarse I could make my own. As far as I know, no other manufacturer has this type of 3 in 1 product. I did not pay any where near $800 for mine. Yet, still they aren’t cheap.They are however, very effective!

Regarding the Stillpoints Aperatures… once you hear them in your space, you'll understand their value.

Let us know how they work out. The main reason I never tried the Wavewood panels was the way they needed to be installed. (with the adhesive). If it were me, I’d get some Command strips with the appropriate weight limit for the initial try-out.  Then I discovered the Stillpoints Aperatures….WOW!

The only reason I could guess on the subject of reviewers not having room treatments may be for (true to life reviewing of equipment)?

About 9’x 14’..roughly.

Last time I checked, the cable company has the wall panels available as only a 8 pc buy.

I use 8 Extreme Bass panels in the front wall’s/two corners. I’ve had them for a couple of years. In my small room, they are instrumental in making it into a BIG room while taming bass nodes. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

When you get the bass right, everything seems to fall into place.
