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!

I've read a fair bit on room acoustics and balance can be one key. So I might agree with RW, what are your other five major surfaces like in terms of absorption/reflection?

But Zd542 asks the most basic question - do you have problems now or are you just restless to change something?

One point I've read from several sources, wool is one of the best absorption materials. It is better than most any synthetic. So your berber with thick pad would seem to be a good choice as part of the desired absorption percentage.
