ok im opening pandoras box here.(treatment vs framed wall art)


So i am in a dedicated 2:1 room and am treating it for sound ,it is very bright. Although I enjoy having a selection of framed pictures on my wall they vibrate and ring.I see so many unreal setups in the forum with a ton of pics on the walls. How are you mellowing the room down with 15 glass framed pics on your wall? .I realize its a battle between form and function but ...
Thanks

+1 for GIK Acoustics.

Also, sculpture can act as diffusors. :)

If possible, remove the glass or replace with museum quality plexiglass which maintains UV protection but is less rigid, and not as good a reflector. Also, use foam behind the frames to prevent rattling from the drywall.

Avoid reflectors most of all at 1st reflection points.  However, you can compensate for too much glass somewhat with lots of diffusors and dampening elsewhere. For instance, the ceiling is often overlooked. :) 

Best,
