INSTALLATION:
To maximize performance, place the majority of SonoFlat™ panels in close proximity to the laptop microphone. Where possible, try to make the panel installation symmetrical on opposing walls. The point of first reflection from the microphone or computer is the most important area to address with SonoFlat panels. It's a good idea to temporarily place the panels and test the audio quality, moving positions, and retesting until you find the best location in your room.
Mark the target position on your wall where the product will be mounted using small pencil marks, pieces of masking tape, or any similar nonmarring method. Be sure the surface where the EZ-Stick Pro™ Tabs adhere is free of dirt, dust, or other oily contaminants by spot cleaning with rubbing alcohol. (See the EZ-Stick Pro™ Tab User Guide)
Sonoflat™ panels use (2) EZ-Stick Pro™ Tabs each, placed on diagonal corners. The EZ-Stick Pro™ tabs can be cut in half and adhered to on all four back corners.
Remove one of the release layers on the EZ-Stick Pro™ Tabs, and affix it to the rear side of the product's perimeter, usually near the corners. Apply firm pressure, and wait about 5 minutes for the adhesive to set.
Remove the second layer of the release paper from each of the EZ-Stick Pro™ Tabs, carefully orient the panel's position prior to contact with the wall, then press in place with moderate pressure.

Great looking panels! I installed one Home Office Kit in my counseling office and another in an adjacent office to mute conversation and reduce echo. They work okay for muting conversation and an excellent job of reducing echo. I installed them by placing “Strong and Wide” Gorilla Tape (2.88” wide) on two back corners of each panel and attached 3M Command Strip picture-hanging Velcro strips so I can easily remove the panels without risk to damaging paint. I got all grey panels and some varied a bit in size but I was able to figure out a layout and carefully install them so the size difference is barely noticeable. A couple of panels in each set had some malformations and Auralex was quick to respond and send replacements. I’m very happy with the look, performance, and customer service!

It works fine. I needed something to tame early reflections in a small room. Works fine. The sticky tape worked well. With 20 I could only create two symmetrical matrices on each wall - 9x9. Still works fine - and I like the purple color.
So good
Love the Auralex Home Office Kit acoustic tile package. Fairly priced, very effective sound proofing, securely packaged and easy to install. My only recommendation is more color choice for young streamers looking for style.
It works very well
I bought these for echo cancellation for my room. It is a pretty small space, but I could hear myself echoing when i talked. These have made the echo SUBSTANTIALLY better, and they look good. It makes the room feel much more cozy. My only complaint is the red ones are SLIGHTLY smaller than the black ones. This does not bother me THAT much, but was noticeable. If I was installing these for someone else I would have been disappointed by the discrepancy. The rest of the process was good. They shipped fast.
