Where were the mats purchased?
Inexpensive Cork Room Treatments
Had a happy discovery this week that inexpensive, egg-carton-waffled cork bath mats make great room treatments. They're 24" x 18" or 36" x 24", and the price of a couple of CDs. My wife bought an extra one, and I stole it to treat the wall behind and between my speakers with the result of a more focused center image and no hardness in the treble at volumes that previously over-energized my plaster walls. They'd be good at first-reflection points, too. Since they're a natural material, they don't look too bad either.

Amazon, where we got ours, sells the 24x18: http://www.amazon.com/Gaiam-All-Natural-Cork-Bath-Mat/sim/B000O1YSIU/2 For the 36x24: http://www.gardeners.com/Cork-Bath-Mat/NewFortheHome_Cat,37-834,default,cp.html Should it happen to be a bonus for anyone, it may be the world's first all-natural and recycled (old wine corks) room treatment ;). |
Natural Cork tiles are better value IMO and looks better. My front (65%) and back(100%) walls are cover with this pattern wall tiles. I love it for many reasons. |
