TubeTrap & SoundPlank Setup

Here we walk you through the recommended progression for treating your room acoustics. You will start by improving the musicality and stereo imaging of your system. Next, you will expand upon those improvements and add width and depth to your sound stage. Finally, you will control all aspects of the room sound to create an immersive sonic experience with a hall-like ambience, wraparound imaging, and 3 dimensional depth. It truly must be heard to be fully appreciated.
