Introducing the Amplitude Range

GIK’s latest generation of acoustic panels, the Amplitude range, combines aesthetic appeal with high-performance acoustic absorption and diffusion. Utilizing the company’s patented recessed plate technology, these panels deliver a sleek, flush-fit appearance without compromising on sound quality. Perfect for high-end rooms seeking both form and function, the Amplitude series is poised to become a staple in premium acoustic treatment.

Q11D Quadratic Diffuser

Another US debut at AXPONA 2026 is the Q11D quadratic diffuser, a one-dimensional design based on GIK’s popular Q7D model. Featuring an 11-root well sequence, the Q11D shifts its voicing higher into the midrange, offering targeted diffusion. Modular by design, it effectively scatters sound down to 570Hz while providing even diffusion up to 3900Hz, making it ideal for fine-tuning room acoustics and enhancing stereo imaging.

Scalable Sound Solutions: Sound Blocks and StackPack

GIK is also showcasing its scalable, freestanding solutions Sound Blocks and Sound Block StackPack designed for critical listening spaces. The StackPack combines three Sound Blocks arranged vertically, providing high-frequency diffusion alongside bass absorption down to 50Hz. These versatile options allow for customizable room treatments tailored to specific acoustic needs.

US Debut of Bass Traps, Amplitude Panels, and Q11D Diffuser

All these innovative products new bass traps, the Amplitude range, and the Q11D diffuser—mark their first appearance in the North American market at AXPONA 2026, underscoring GIK’s commitment to advancing room acoustics technology.

Unlocking the Secrets of Room Acoustics

Beyond product displays, GIK Acoustics will host two engaging masterclasses titled ‘Why Your Room Is Lying To You, And What To Do About It’. Presented by James Lindenschmidt, VP of Acoustic Design, these sessions will take place on Friday, April 10, and Sunday, April 12, at 2 pm.

In these sessions, Lindenschmidt will demystify the complexities of room acoustics, emphasizing that acoustics is primarily a time-domain issue rather than solely frequency-based. Attendees will learn how to interpret spectrograms, understand decay patterns, and recognize why traditional frequency charts can be misleading. The class will also delve into the physics of bass management, proper placement of treatment, and how to distinguish effective solutions from marketing hype.

Meet the Experts and Transform Your Listening Space

Throughout AXPONA, James Lindenschmidt and the GIK team will be available to discuss practical room treatment strategies, system setup, and product selection. Whether for a dedicated audiophile listening room or a home theater, attendees can gain valuable insights into optimizing their acoustic environments.
