A tapestry or rug would look nice. Staple a board to the back along the top and use L brackets to hang from the hearth ledge?
Flexible room treatment material???
My speakers flank a large slate-tile hearth that also houses a glassed-in propane fireplace.
Is there some sort of flexible room treatment material that could be fashioned into a "quilt" and hung from the top of the hearth to cover these hard surfaces while listening???
I’m very happy with the sound I get but can’t help but wonder whether such a strategy might yield worthwhile benefits.
My wife is handy with a sewing machine.
