  8. Verified Customer –

    Absorption in home listening room.

  9. Verified Customer –

    We put the product up in the gym, which doubles as an auditorium. It has done a great job reducing the echo, although I suspect we need to put more panels up to reduce it further. We have also discovered that curious children's hands can easily damage these foam panels; we mounted them 6 ft off the floor (we are a K-8 girls' school, who thought they can reach that high?) but the damage is minimal, only at the bottom couple inches of a few panels.

  10. Verified Customer –

    While this product is nowhere as durable as the original product that we used for nearly 20 years, it does the job well.

  11. Verified Customer –

    fast shipping, product exactly as promised
