You know the research is solid when they measure absorption at the peeks.
Meanwhile, there already are better alternatives to old-school acoustic treatments. By far the biggest improvement is to prevent energy getting into room structures in the first place. To do that simply put speakers and other components on springs. Ordinary springs like Nobsound help, but properly damped springs like Townshend are much better, probably because they directly target and damp resonance.
It is easy to read papers and posts and stuff, and conclude it is all about acoustic energy. For sure acoustic energy is involved. But it takes all of 30 minutes to prove mechanical energy can be many times greater a problem.
Then when it comes to acoustic treatment, Synergistic HFT are a lot more effective than old-school panels. Another one it takes only a little time to demonstrated.
PS- The "peek absorption" thing they are talking about is called a Helmholtz resonator.
