For over two decades now I have been doing dedicated Home theater and music room acoustical consultation with many installers in my local area. For years I have used RPG products for acoustical control which are quite expensive. I was tasked with finding acoustical products that are more value oriented for their clients with lower budgets without giving up performance and build quality. I ran across BXI Sound Diffusor, and decided I would give it a try.
This product is a winner, not only in the price category, but in the quality of its build. It is easily an equal to RPG's $268 dollar Hemiffussor and their $225 dollar omniffusor. Two of these panels cost less than one of the Hemiffusor, and that is a deal you cannot pass up. As far as diffusive performance, it is the equal to the omniffusor.
For those of you DIYers looking to build your home theater on a budget, this a must have product to fine tune the acoustical performance of your room. Rather than using absorption panels for my first reflection points, I used these instead. I had a bad lateral wall slap echo, and these panels eliminated it without removing energy from the room. The diffusion this product offers allows for a more natural sounding room that is not overly dead.
I highly recommend this product and BXI's great customer service as well.
