Zalan Schuster, a GIK Acoustics dealer and acoustic technician in Slovakia, places acoustic treatments in a Listening Room in Pardubice, Czech Republic.

Listening room in Pardubice, Czech Republic treated with GIK Acoustics panels including GridFusor, TriTrap™ Corner Bass Traps, Soffit Corner Bass Trap, Scopus Bass Traps, and FlexRange® Bass Trap Panels

The room is 5.5 m x 4.1 m x 3m high — which are ideal ratios, but has bad acoustics because of the wall properties. The goal is to use GIK Acoustics products to treat the room to tame low-end frequencies.

The Treatment

GridFusor panels and FlexRange® Bass Trap Panels are installed on the front wall and TriTrap™ Corner Bass Traps are stacked in the corners. Soffit Corner Bass Trap panels are positioned around the room between the ceiling and walls. On the back wall, 5 Scopus Bass Traps are installed above 5 FlexRange® Bass Trap Panels.

The Results

Testing shows the frequency response is greatly improved and decay times are significantly reduced.

Hear the Difference

Listen to the difference between the treated and untreated room.

Even the owner, Lubos Kubias, is surprised at the difference from the acoustic treatment of his room and how GIK Acoustics brought his sound to life. "The two days we spent constructing are worth it, because like Zalan said the sound difference is huge and I am very happy."

GIK Acoustics PIB Vocal Booth Pro Reviewed by Sound On Sound

GIK Acoustics PIB Vocal Booth Pro Reviewed by Sound On Sound

Sound On Sound has reviewed GIK Acoustics’ PIB Pack, now known as the PIB Vocal Booth Pro, highlighting its effectiveness as a practical, professional solution for recording vocals in untreated or compromised rooms. Rather than attempting soundproofing, the PIB Vocal Booth Pro focuses on controlling early reflections and decay around the microphone, resulting in cleaner, more consistent vocal recordings. Built using thick, broadband absorption and a modular design, it avoids the common pitfalls of thin, foam-based solutions. The review reinforces the PIB Vocal Booth Pro’s role as a serious acoustic tool designed for real-world studios and modern recording workflows.
