It depends so much on so many factors in the room. Most rooms need both. Small rooms tend to need a lot of diffusion, where as larger ones as a percentage tend to need more absorption. But this is just a rule of thumb, and other items can affect it greatly.
Absorbers or Diffusors for 1rst/2nd refl. points?
Any thoughts on this: from my reading it seems easy enough to build diffusors for specific frequencies - would this make more sense than absorbing panels?
I love the live sound I get & don't want to dampen it.
I think I have more problems in the bass which I'm hoping to address with tube traps, the mid and treble sound fine.
Just a thought at my early stage of treating my new small room. Have CARA & a RS spl coming - any input from Rives and that other fabulous man who answers everything - can't look up his name or I'll have to retype all this - own Echobusters I think.
