My system is ... well, not ready

Hi Everyone,

A lot of you have been asking me to look at my system, and it’s been an absolute mess in this apartment. However!! I am moving, and I have posted the new living/listening room up in the Systems part of Audiogon. I’m 3 weeks from occupying that space, so please be patient as it will take a while to clutter it up with electronics. :)

Right now the plan is to put the TV in the bay window. It only looks at the neighbors, so I don’t mind giving it up, flanked by GIK acoustics soffit traps and standalone panels, as well as adding curtains in all the windows and doors and ceiling mounted panels.

The room is about 13' by 17' and I'll be taking lots of measurements as I go along. :)

Best,

E

Hi Erik!  Congrats on the new place.  I’m sure you’ll get the room all dialed in.  You might want to talk to GIK about covering the entire front wall with panels.  It has always sucked the life out of the music when I did that.  I’ve found that its better to evenly spread them out throughout the listening room and to not over do it.  I like the idea of treating the room as much as possible, as in treating it pretty much everywhere, but it should be with an even amount of diffusion and absorption.  GIK has some really nice looking scatter plates now for the bass traps too that would stay with the theme of your room aesthetically.


Anyhow, exciting stuff!  Congrats on the new living space 👍
