If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?

Yeah you may need an absorption panel if your room is completely open, ie. No rug or furniture, ie just lonely single chair. But if your system can't cut it in any room then it's a system problem and you should be able to discern a good system regardless of the room.  Unless you put it on the roof of your apartment building but the Beatles seemed to have survived that effort

I think people go nuts with all this absorption acoustical room treatment stuff and it looks kind of awful.  Once in a while you see a really cool looking diffuser panel and I would definitely want one. But to have a system that works really well without any of the acoustical panel distractions is a wonderful thing.

Reflections , I have 10 , 1st reflections from the front, in corners Bass traps which can create boominess ,then directly behind ,carpeting Always recommended in front at least for slap echo off floor onto ceilings . Some people with $$ like my brother have the whole room treated and looks neat it’s a dedicated multimedia room but that’s over $10 k . 2x4 room panels are under $100 each 2x2 behind on walls is good also. They come in different  color fabrics , even with art work on them ,which I plan on buying to make the man cave more presentable to the Mrs..

the room is more calm and refined , plants too help as defusers ,you see them at shows.
