Concrete or Wood floor in listening room?


I'm thinking about building a listening room. It will be a concrete slab. I'll be using carpeting in the room. Should I put plywood down on the concrete first or just carpet over the concrete?

Thanks,
Mike

Horns huh, have you talked to Jim Smith of Avantgarde? He will strongly beg that you put wood over the concrete. I talked to him in mid construction of my room and he talked me into the same basic construction as Dave described. I can't say if it's better since it's a tough one to A/B, but my horns sound pretty darn good in there. Call Jim, he's really helpful and would be able to really describe why it is so important.
