TubeTrap™ Rooms
Leroy Schwarz Listening Room with Wilson Alexandria Speakers |
"Step
1 in ASC’s recommendations
for my purpose-built listening room (e.g., double drywall screwed to
articulated studs, all interior walls insulated, floating concrete
floor, ) was a pair 20” Traps in the corners behind the Alexandrias.
These “big reds” allow me to hear the deep, powerful bass that the
Alexandrias are capable of, and liberate the midrange and treble from
'mud' that I didn’t know had been there. Not until it disappeared.
Every sonic attribute is better, too; e.g., quiet spaces are quieter,
the sound stage is more spacious. I had not really heard my Alexandrias
until the 'big reds' took up residence. If you are using Alexandrias
without TubeTraps, then I’ll bet that you’re not hearing yours either." -- Leroy Schwarz |

Martin Dareff's Listening Room |
"ASC's products let
me
tune the room out of my music. Boom, blur, megaphone, side wall
reflections, rear wall bounce and the rest of the room's sonic problems
overcome. My first experience with ASC was more than a decade ago when
I called them looking for help tuning new electrostatics into a room.
ASC dialed the room right in. They are still here today to help solve a
side wall reflection problem in a new room, and the fabric matches
what's on the original traps and treatments. Your largest component is
your room and they make the best treatments I've run across... great
products, great service, great results, and I still have those
electrostatics." -- Martin Dareff |

Frans Deurenberg's Listening Room |
"The Towertraps have
arrived! All three in excellent condition. First impression is very
good: the bass is much better controlled and defined. And as an extra bonus, the mids and highs are so much better in clarity and resolution. I must say: It's impressive what these Towertraps can do! Thank you for the time you put into 'my acoustic project'! Best regards, Frans Deurenberg." -- Frans Deurenberg |

Marlyn Holland's Listening Room |
"When I explain what I have
done to my listening room to friends and family they think I've went
completely overboard. That is, right up to the point when they have the
opportunity walk into the room and experience a space unlike any they
have previously.
. . . Every investment has taken
my listening experience to yet another level. The ASC journey was
worthy of the effort required and expense was truly an investment that
continues to yield return." -- Marilyn Holland |

Mark McMillen's Listening Room |
"Well I just got done installing
a
bunch of Acoustic Sciences stuff: 20" SuperTraps in the corner behind
the right speaker, 'Half Rounds' in the little hallway leading to my
bedroom, and another Half Round between the speakers, four 'PCAD'
panels and one 'MatrixPanel' behind the listening seat on the wall, and
another "'MatrixPanel' on the wall over the record cabinet (first
reflecion point). This is only part of the stuff ASC came up with in
their free design for my room, but it was all I could afford. Really a
major upgrade in the sound. Definitely a bigger improvement than 5
power cords (about the same price, too). So yeah, I feel silly not
doing it sooner!" -- Mark McMillen |

Ken West's Listening Room |
"Well,
let me know what you
think. The overall sound is amazingly improved from the previous set
up. It goes without saying, music reproduction is not about
electronics...it's about speakers interacting with a room. I'm most
impressed with the fantastic flexibility of this room set up. And the
subs appear to be disappearing in their original spot. Time will
tell....
Thanks again," -- Ken West |

Dawn Boyle's Listening Room |
"Dear Art, It has been 1 year since I first fired up my system. All of the electronic equipment has been properly burned-in now. I have taken my time in learning to tune my tube traps and now believe I have found the magic placement: the midrange is glorious, crystal-clear sound staging, lots of air around instruments and fast, tight, deep bass! I just wanted to let you know that it was a dream come true working with you and your staff @ ASC!" -- Dawn Boyle |

Ferdinand LuDo's Listening Room |
"Dear ASC,
I know the investment we placed on the Sound Panels and Bass traps was phenomenal 5 years ago but the outcome was well worth it. We have visitors from all over the country and some parts of the world. They cannot believe the sound coming out of the room regardless of the speakers that we set-up. The layering, the soundstage, the decay, the little nuances, details, the holography and involvement in music is just an immense experience. While the equipment used in this room are top notch, I believe their performance is taken to another level with the ASC treatment. It was well worth the effort. Thank you ASC." -- Ferdinand LuDo |
