Acoustic Blanket for TV


I put in a 50 inch TV near the left speaker in my office. The TV is against the side wall and the speakers are in the front wall. I am getting some reflections as I expected.

I was hoping to talk with these guys about getting some fabric to control the reflections.

However, I am tired of being sent to voicemail. I think it is time for another approach.

I have also contacted GIK Acoustics about this TV issue because I was at one time thinking about putting the TV in-between the speakers. They have not gotten back to me yet. However, I came to my senses on that and decided to move the TV to the side and not in-between the speakers. I was hoping to use a 40’ TV but that one is on it’s last legs so I had to use the bigger 50" TV.

I talked to a company about sound absorption blankets but they told me that their blankets would be too heavy for a TV.

What have people used to cover their TV’s to make nice with the acoustics? I am trying a folded quilt now and it works OK. However, my wife will eventually notice the missing quilt from the guest bedroom. So I wanted to get some suggestions before I spend some money on this problem.

@yyzsantabarbara  Must be very nice to have the CS3.7 speakers how you like them. Besides everything else, what a sweet looking pair of speakers.  





It almost seems that the natural place to have the TV would be on top of the bookshelf, more or less where the "wheels of Life" picture is.  Then connect TV audio to your stereo and you are good to go.
