22 yrs ago,in my first home I had a live end dead end listening room using Sonex. The results in that room were spectacular.In years since I have been fortunate to have been able to use less and less room treatment. I have found by using specifically determined angles at the ceiling wall junction much of the lost energy that seems to collect at the ceiling and corners can be redirected back to the listener. The result is you have a much more natural listening environment without the use dynamic destroying, dampening materials. Before I implemented this system [with much advice from my friend Brent ] I used the Argent Room Lenses with much sucess.I still use the Lenses to contour the edges of the soundstage. I now think of sound waves as if they are fluid ,in that you can bend them and redirect them like a intake manifold or exhaust manifold does in an automobile.This new to me, rationale has resulted in a much better listening environment and greater listening pleasure. I am now experimenting with new accoustic devices which have so far been a total winner,and wow what an improvement.-Tom
Argent Room Lenses?
My wife and I have been discussing our options reguarding acoustic treatments. After looking at several different items, we've discovered that Argent Room Leses is something we both can live with. However, I was wondering if anyone at Audiogon has had any experience with them. Whether it is negative or postive, I would appreciate any input.
