from w/w CARPET to WOOD floors


I am thinking about pulling up the wool berber and thick pad underneath. My thought is the carpet/pad can suck the life from the music in much the same way too much absorption can. Then I would use an area rug, and take absorption baby steps if needed. Please share any thoughts!

Wolf_garcia is right.

If you go with wood or suspended floors, carpeted or not, never spike into them, as you turn the floor into a sound board, which will accentuate and muddy the bass.
Always decouple into suspended floors wood or sheet, only spike into solid cement floors or slabs.
