52 Pack 1" x 12" x 12" Black/purple Acoustic Wedge Studio Foam Sound Absorption Wall Panels (black/purple)

I ordered these more to cover the walls, and add some echo cancellation, as I live in a historical building that is just starting to do renovations, so my walls has cracks, they are uneven and the paint isn't the best looking, but not tons I can do about it as I rent. Since i have a Youtube studio set up in my room, I figured the best way to make it look more modern was acoustic panels. They do also help with echo cancellation, that "stadium" type of sound, but they don't block noise out from other areas, they aren't for soundproofing, they are designed to stop sound from bouncing around, which does quiet things, such as a window fan, that has it's sound bounced back from the opposite wall.They come VERY compressed. maybe 12 inches thick, and I was worried as it said it could take 48 hours to expand, unless you soak them in water, then it can be reduced to 1-5 hours. However, as soon as I opened the package, POOF they expanded nicely and were pretty much good to go, a few panels were still squished, but they are good enough to go on the wall. The pictures I have attached are from under 60 seconds after opening the package up...One thing, is that they do stink... they smell like really strong mildew, and my skin felt a bit itchy where I had touched them, then myself, but it went away fast. The smell is not mildew, just the smell from the polymer. This is the same foam you get in like a cheap mic windscreen cover, or cheap earbud covers. very fluffy and not rigid. I put mine by a window with the fan pulling air out, and it went away within an hour, anyone that has ordered a mattress recently will be familiar with the process.The panels are large also, very large.

Amazing exactly what's in the picture

A lot of this acoustic sound paneling is just for looks but I decided to cover an entire back wall with it considering I do a lot of recording and these have done the job. There has been some issues with adhesion, but because they sent so many adhesive squares I have been able to address those and stick them back on the walls whenever they do fall, but it is annoying.

These panels solved the issues in my studio and took the hard edge off from the reflections bouncing around the room. Great price! I upgraded my mics and bought a professional mic pre. Unfortunately the upgrades brought out the issues in my room. These panels did the trick!!

The media could not be loaded. The foam is deformed, uneven, and some look like they have bites taken out of them. They’re inconsistent and don’t help at all with sound. They’re good for the money if you’re just looking for decorating the wall with something other than paint.

I purchased blue and black. Over 200 tiles. The black had two shades as did the blue. 10 blue tiles had burnt edges and both the black and the blue had tiles that were less than 12". I had to change the design layout and do some serious trimming. Because of timelines I had to make do. Buy American!!!!!!!

Great product and fast service.

I bought these for my studio build and used it on the garage door to keep sound from getting out, trying not to irritate the neighbors, and with this stuff it’s light enough for my garage door to still work, and cutting it to fit space was easy and after the door was covered there was a significant difference. For the price and how many pieces you get though can’t go wrong, good quality and easy to use.
