Dedicated room suggestions

@soix , thanks for posting that book, great resource. If it isn't too much trouble could you post your system with a few pics in the virtual system area? Would really enjoy checking it out. Thanks

Hey @chiadrum , there is a video in the other thread you were just in where Anthony Grimani discusses room treatments. His website is below and they sell both individual treatments as well as kits for entire rooms. I followed the recommendation in the video and got great results. You can see the measurements of my treated room in my system profile. I would definitely e-mail them or call if you like what you see in the video. Anthony corresponded with me via e-mail and was very helpful. If you post some pics of the room it would be better. You need to take into consideration where the windows are, open doorways, etc. Those speakers will likely be better off well into the room.

You can setup a virtual system in your profile and post pics there. That harshness will likely resolve once you get your room right. Dampening sound around the window is a good idea if is noisy outside. The first thing is to orient your speakers and MLP. The angle is very important. As for which wall to face glass is not acoustic friendly. There are ways to treat windows but if you can keep the window behind or away from the space between you and the speakers its a plus. I know you are doing 2 channel not atmos but this diagram with the angles of the left and right speakers is a good layout:

As for the floor a rug or carpet is not as reflective as hard wood. Also you can use a tape measure to get the distance of each speaker to the MLP to match. Orient the tweeters to ear height if possible. Try and keep the speakers at least two feet out from the wall and then you can test moving them closer or further out to get what you like.

Earl Geddes is renowned for his subwoofer integration strategies and bass management. Thanks for posting @soix 

Check page 236 on subwoofer setup, that is exactly how I did it (opposite corners) and you can see the bass response for my subs in the measurements in my profile, it worked great. Earl is the man!
