GIK Acoustics Boosts Bass Control with New Deep Bass Trap Panels

Explore how GIK Acoustics’ latest deep bass trap panels tackle low-frequency challenges for clearer, more balanced sound.

Bass frequencies—those deep, rumbling tones—can be a real pain to manage, whether you’re mixing tracks in a studio or enjoying a home cinema movie night. If you’ve ever noticed that muddy, boomy sound that just won’t quit, you know exactly what I mean. That’s exactly why GIK Acoustics has stepped up their game with a brand-new lineup of deep bass trap panels designed to tame those pesky low frequencies once and for all.

GIK Acoustics unveils three new bass trap panels targeting deep low-frequency absorption.

Why Deep Bass Traps Matter

Let’s be honest: bass is the sneaky troublemaker of room acoustics. It loves to build up on walls, creating standing waves that mess with your sound clarity and accuracy. Most standard acoustic panels just don’t cut it below 100Hz; they’re too thin to absorb those deep, stubborn frequencies.

GIK Acoustics recognized this challenge and expanded their bass trap range to include thicker panels—20cm (8 inches) and 22cm (9.5 inches) thick—that soak up frequencies all the way down to 60Hz and even 50Hz in some models. This means you can finally tackle that low-end boom that’s been blurring your audio experience, bringing much-needed clarity to your space.

Meet the New GIK Bass Trap Panel Range

Ready to give your room a serious sonic makeover? Here’s a closer look at the three new heavy-hitters from GIK Acoustics:

• Classic Bass Trap Panel “60Hz”
  This is your go-to broadband bass absorber, packing a 20cm mineral wool core. It pulls its weight absorbing frequencies down to around 60Hz—offering up to 25% better low-frequency absorption than their older 15cm panels. Simple, effective, and powerful.
• Amplitude Bass Trap Panel “60Hz”
  For those craving a bit more design flair mixed with performance, this panel blends absorption with scattering and diffusion. It matches the Classic’s depth and low-frequency prowess with a stylish twist, also hitting that 60Hz mark with 25% more absorption than its 15cm counterpart.
• FlexRange® Bass Trap Panel “50Hz”
  The heavyweight of the trio, this panel is built on GIK’s patented two-frame FlexRange® system and includes a built-in air gap to dive deeper into bass control—absorbing frequencies down to 50Hz. Flexible in setup, it can be configured in Full Range, Range Limiter, or Scatter Plate modes, outperforming 17cm models by up to 30% in low-frequency absorption.

All three have been independently tested at the University of Salford to rigorous BS EN ISO 354:2003 standards, meaning you’re getting scientifically validated performance. Plus, with over 20 fabric options from Camira Cara and various customization choices, you can tailor these panels to fit your room’s style without compromising on sound quality.
