GIK 244 Bass Trap

GIK Acoustics 244 Bass Trap

The GIK 244 Bass Trap is professionally manufactured for a sharp and crisp appearance. Most acoustic products are merely a fabric wrapped piece of acoustic material or foam that is not only unattractive but is not very effective below 125 Hz. All GIK panels are manufactured with a wood frame to not only give it a professional look but making mounting extremely easy and durable to stand the test of time. An air gap is built into the design to provide performance well below 80Hz while still providing the clean look when flush mounting on the wall. GIK’s design of the 244 (and The GIK Monster Trap) is to allow it to be used in quantity, to absorb as much bass as possible without over absorbing the high end, which leaves life inside of the room. Cymbals are crisp and clear while bass kicks!

Most studio engineers compensate for inaccurate room bass levels by guessing, because they feel their monitors are not giving a true response. In reality it is not the monitors, but an untreated room that creates the unbalanced sound. After installing GIK 244 Bass Traps you will be able to hear and engineer bass properly. As a sound engineer from LA put it after installing GIK 244 in his studio: "I never knew that you could get so much bass out of NS-10 monitors. Now what I hear in the studio is what is heard in every other stereo. No more guessing on the low end."

Instead of mounting the panel on the wall you can attach our custom metal stands to the panel so it is free standing. Complete your GIK Products with our free standing custom metal stands. Great looks and flexibility! (shown at right).

	"The GIK products do a remarkable job at creating a great, early-reflection free sweet spot for the engineer and controlling bass. The panels and basstraps have turned a acoustically challenging room into a perfectly workable listening environment." Ivo Witteveen, co-owner, MOST Audio Post, Amsterdam

Certified lab tests have proven that the GIK 244 Bass Traps provides better sound quality then any other panel on the market See Absorption Report >

GIK Acoustics uses sound absorption insulation with ECOSE technology. Unlike most competing products, it is manufactured from naturally occurring and/or recycled raw materials and bonded using a bio-based technology free from formaldehyde, phenols, acrylics and with no artificial colors, bleaches or dyes. ECOSE reduces energy consumption and pollutants stemming from the production process and is therefore more fully recyclable than standard mineral wool or fiberglass. The absorptive core has earned the toughest indoor air quality certification in the industry, GREENGUARD™, which is certified to meet CHPS Low-Emitting Materials criteria section 01350. GIK's Treatments with ECOSE technology are easy on air quality for your room, the environment, and your budget.
