Artnovion Sienna BT Corner Bass Trap

Further Information

These are tuneable bass traps, that can be tuned with a target from 58-82hz maximum absorption.  Everything about them can be found on this page from the manufacturer:

I have two mobile kits, each with a stand and 3 bass trap units.  In the photos I have set them up on the stands, but they also come with wall mounts to mount them directly to the corner of your room.

They have weights that you bolt onto the front to tune them.  The more weights you put on (each one can have up to 4) the lower the frequency of the maximum absorption.

The wall mounts are still in their unopened bags.  I have installed half the weights (4 on the bottom units, 2 on the middle ones, and none on the top).  In one of the photos I’ve taken the front baffle off and put one weight on to show how that works.

This is the weird thing when you try to buy them….it costs $1500 for 2 units (I’m selling 6 here).  But when you buy them as a kit, the kit is $2,500.  It seems like a bargain, until you realise that one kit (6 pieces) is actually just one side (the 6 pieces are the three units, plus the base and two stands).  Some websites even say the kit is two towers, but call and check or try to buy them, and you’ll find that it’s actually only one tower.  This happened to me.

Anyway, even if you don’t believe my experience, and think they’re only $2,500 new (they aren’t, they are $5k), these are very much below it, at $1000, and they’re only 2 years old.  They’ve sat in the corners of my dedicated room for those two years.

They do make a big difference to the quality of the bass in the room!  Room treatment is important, and often ignored.

Normally the room is very tidy.  It’s just that I’m moving and I’ve sold the speakers and have boxes packed up.  One of the photos shows one set of wall mounts in the bag.  Another photo shows the weights.  All the bolts for the weights are in the units, as the bolt needs to stay there even if the weight isn’t attached.  One of these photos shows the room before is started packing and selling things.
