rhodes, well, both. (4mil$, 2000 butts in seats....generally not totally filled).....
When one enters that sphere, the acousticians start with scale models and 'mini-mics', trying to define where to start.
When the actual structure is nearly done is when the science butts into the art. There's been spaces that looked great 'on paper' that sucked in reality and triggered major 'change orders' and compromises.
Sound in a given space, large or small, is generally a compromise. In a home, unless one has built for the intended space, there will be trade-offs....and even with the 'built space'....MC alludes to that; he began with 'x', but lives with 'z' happily...
I'm approaching having to 'make that deal' in the near future.
But, for the time being, I just 'run what I've brung'...or have. *S*
