Just got my panels and there is a distinguishable blemish on it. Anyone has the same experience?

Sorry, it took me so long to type this (am doing something else at the same time) that I didn't realize the guy above me said much of the same thing. Anyway, yeah--good advice.

I think that comparing these to the ones mentioned on Amazon and saying that there is little difference is very misleading. First of all, there are and can be major differences amongst brands due to the quality and density of the foam. Second, the one on Amazon is a flimsy 1 inch foam that will do little except absorb some of the high frequency content. The ones here are 2" and most likely more dense. Having said all of that, if you are serious about setting up an accurate room for mixing, I wouldn't go with foam at all, especially for bass traps. Bass traps do much better if you build them yourselves and use either rockwool or rigid fiberglas panels. The traps should be at least 4" thick, with 6" being better for the real low end. As far as full-range wall panels, stick with 2" rigid fiberglass sheets. An overhead cloud would help also. There are plenty of online resources that will show you how to make this for cheap and how to properly place them in your room.

ZaphodXNot all acoustic treatment is designed to do the same thing. The angled foam squares, like the ones sold in 24 packs on Amazon, are designed to disperse sound and break up standing waves, not absorb. Those are typically cheap and don't need to be high quality to do the job.
Sound absorption panels, which are what most of the models here appear to be, are packed with some sort of mineral wool and are designed to actually absorb and kill sound waves. They are typically more expensive. Since most of these look like absorption panels, that's probably why the price is much higher than the Amazon bundle.
That being said, don't buy these. Make your own. Buy a bunch of Rockwool / Roxul Safe n' Sound from Home Depot, build some frames with 2 x 4s, stick the mineral wool inside, and wrap in some acoustic fabric. Fraction of the cost if you're trying to treat a whole room.

noxproductionFoam doesn't reflect sound. Cut into triangles, egg crates whatever they don't function as diffusers. It's a tactic to put something on your wall that costs more and does less. Better off with a block, but foam is garbage anyway. Minimal high end absorption. Good call on Rockwool.

Not all acoustic panels are made equal. Judging by the pictures they appear pretty solid and not as thin or porous as what you will find in bulk on Amazon. That said this is really high priced stuff. You are almost always better off buying sheets of rockwool paneling from a hardware store. Performance wise they are superior but there may be some DIY involved if you want to cover it with cloth or frame it with wood for better looks. Also foam is a poor choice for corner bass traps as foam panels are much better at deadening/absorbing higher frequency sound.

kirewarkThis is hugely important. The bulk panels on amazon are pretty weaksauce - I have a buddy who made this mistake. They're light and flimsy and aren't effective in doing their job - they just look like they should. I'd reckon these will do the job - but the rockwool method is what I would personally do.

cbtlrI used Rockwool sound deadening insulation inside the walls of my studio during construction. For acoustical treatment inside your recording space you can use foam panels similar to the ones offered in this drop. Or... you could build your own, using Owens Corning OC703 panels, covered in the fabric of your choice. Not to knock Massdrop's product, but it can get very expensive, real fast, if you're working with a good sized space. You can buy the Owens Corning product in packages of six panels... each panel is 24" X 48" the equivalent two, 24" X 24" panels sold in this drop... so one case is Six Times the number of square feet, and many consider it to be a superior product as well. Of course you need to add the cost of a fabric covering... but you end up with a custom space, with better acoustical characteristics, at a much lower cost. https://www.amazon.com/Owens-Corning-703-Fiberglass-Boards/dp/B005V3L834 http://www.buyinsulationproductstore.com/owens-corning-703-fiberglass-acoustic-board-2-3/ https://www.tmsoundproofing.com/Owens-Corning-703-2-Fiberglass-Board.html

A montage of application photos would be nice.
edit: I did find photos of the product in use on their website. Also, too bad that the calculator app is IOS only, no PC or Android.

oldgearheadAcoustic panels are applied with spray adhesive usually. You can buy a can of it from your local hardware store, or Auralex makes a version that comes off the wall really easily too

This is a very poor price everyone. You can get a 24-pack of these on Amazon for the same price.

That's not the same brand; though I can't speak to any real differences in quality per se

bombshelboy

Sep 22, 2016

DJEshelmanyou are absolutely right in both regards. They aren't going to be a difference in quality at all (or a minor difference that isn't even noticeable) and the brand isn't identical.
