For a quick good time, blankets...

Bravo Erik on your common-sense post!
Funny, I did just that this weekend. Went to a thrift shop, bought $6 worth of clean, washed and bagged blankets.
(I have posted before about my Vandy 2Cs being hot in the treble).
Well, after hanging a blanket on the front wall, the side walls, and the rear wall covering up the first reflection points, I sat down for a listen...
Amazing, really amazing!
Bass, good, clean, deep bass.
No more treble bite.
Soundstage deeper, wider and taller.
Sounds like a different and much more expensive system.
Midrange clarity, actually top-to-bottom clarity massively improved.
Kudos! Excellent post!!!

@kalali, Hahaha, yes they are butt-ugly! But, it's a dedicated room, the blankets are temporary guides before I place treatments. My wife says it can't happen soon enough.
Happily married, and plan to stay that way...

@oregonpapa , HAHAHAHA!!! Fast-running sheep!!!

@geoffkait, OMG...LOL!!!

Hey Erik,

Don't mean to hijack your thread but the blankets worked so well I'm looking at room treatments that don't look like...thrift-store blankets stapled to the walls...
Looking at the London 12 kit from Primacoustics.
So... you, or anyone, have any knowledge of this product?

Thanks very much,
Tom

@terraplane8bob,
Interesting! Any chance you can recall the size of the room, and any treatments?

Thank you,
Tom

Yes, the coffee table!
I got rid of mine, and it helped, a lot.
But, mine is a dedicated room. Easy to ditch something pretty when WAF doesn't come into play...

@wolf_garcia ,
Hahaha! I think the same funny thoughts whilst enjoying me music in me old listening room. I'm thinking wool v cotton v synthetic v blend socks.
How bout no-shows v ankle-highs v calf-length v knee-highs?
Legs apart? Crossed at ankles, knee or mid-thigh?
One foot higher than the other?
The possibilities are endless!!! O, glory be!!!

Bet it sounded Fabiolous...
