But after adding these tubes there was a dramatic difference in the sounds lower end was less muddy and crisper also the upper end tighten up and was more focused. It was like i installed new speakers. Not that the asc was better than the tube traps but actually the presence of more acoustic really made things apparent. Now i'm contemplating ordering four 16" tube traps for the corners and moving the 13" behind the speakers. The diffusion on half of this tubes is real bonus.
