Is an eight sided oval room acoustically correct?

Rives, I have some Swiss Felco's(pruners) but I guess I like the jungle effect and more leaves = more diffusion, right? Just for fun, what do you think of that new Shakti "hat rack". That is a bizare looking contraption. I can imagine a room all done up in RPG stuff, Tube Traps every where,several Argent Room Lenses and a few of those crazy looking Shakti things! Talk about WAF!

Rives, thanks. I understand that the dots won't change that issue. It's a compromose I have to live with.My image is suprisingly good though.I know I can't have stats or Maggies in here. Perhaps the BIG plant in the window
acts as enough of a defuser to help some of it. It's an Anderson window with a 4 1/2' picture window and two doubble hung windows set on a 45, the bay is 8' wide and 22" deep. I have wondered if two small tube traps set at the edges of the picture window might help.

Thanks Rives. The damn plant is so big that it sticks out two feet out into the room, so curtains are out. My wife already thinks I'm nuts and since this is the basicly the Hi Fi room she doesn't say much about what I do in here.
This is more or less my room. I am the one that isn't into uglying it up. It's nice to have a listening space that isn't so bizare looking that no one but me feels comfortable in it. I would probably choose the 9" full rounds in a light fabric so they wouldn't call a lot of attention to themselves.

Have you seen the Golden Sound Acoustic discs? Odd little critters. I wonder if they work?

Rives, you have a great deal of useful information on youre site.

Looking it over brings up some questions that I am giong to try and solve. I have a bay window directly behind my speakers and a sliding glass door to the left. I know that these both contribute some problems to the sound. The bay is not easly coversed by drapes or blinds as it is home to my wifes huge philodendron. This is the only place in the house that it fits and is very happy there. I am wondering if you have any experience with Murigo Audio Labs window tuning dots. I know that it is not the ideal situation or solution, but the room does need to serve as living space to some degree. I am fortrunate enough to be able to set the room up for the Hi Fi and nothing else other than the computer and as an area to relax and read.

Another product that I am curious about are the Golden Sound Company's Acoustic Discs. Any thoughts on these?

Muralman1, that's why I have box speakers in this house! I love stats and planars but the room is part of the system. The room, as a component of my system, dictates what I need to use to get music.

It would be fun to be able to start with a blank sheet of paper.I should say that overall I'm pretty happy to have the room I have. Their are the less fortunate who have to share their rooms with all sorts of crazy goings on!

Muralman1, I never thought of it like that. There is no substitute for a little experience in this crazy endevor.
