Am I the only one wiht speaker cozys ?

I was just thinking about something. My speakers end up being too close to other furniture and to the walls so I ended up covering them with unused, sound dampening curtains to improve the smoothness and imaging.

They can look rather nice if clean and ironed.

Am I the only one who does this?

I surmise you're not married/living with anyone....

True, but given how hideous some speakers may be to room decor, this idea is not aesthetically incompatible. Just have to pick the right colors and fabrics.

It's not like my speakers look homeless or sick with the flu you know. :)

In my view, I'm adding more damping to the living room. The goal is not to make the speakers sound better so much as improve room acoustics, and reducing the speaker to speaker reflections that can happen when you are forced to keep the speakers too close together.

Best,
