@freediver I’ve actually got ATS Acoustic panels in my cart. Haven’t pulled the trigger yet. There’s 2” and 4” thickness? No clue to what “actually will work in my room. Really nice job on your room. Looks sharp! And it sounds like there’s a definite room improvement.
Room Treatment Help
I just moved to the DFW area and drew the short straw for the wife assigned small 10 x 12 x 9’ soon to become, dedicated listening room. It’s in dire need of treatment as there’s a weird resonance, echo sound when clapping your hands. I’ve tried LRS + and open baffle speakers (Spatial Audio Lab) with a nice tube pre and both tube and ss amps. I’m just not happy with the room acoustics. I know I need help and realize small rooms are inherently tough to get good sound. My question is, where in the world do I start? GIK, Primacoustic, Acoustic Fields (Dennis Foley- this guy makes sense) etc? There are tons of YouTube vids out there, I’ve probably watched most of them but the topic is as confusing as trying to come up with end game components for an audiophile. Thanks in advance for your thoughts and experiences as they are highly appreciated!

IMO,the problem with the ATS & similar panels will do nothing to eliminate the eco/reverb,which is likely coming from the ceiling/wall transitions..If you put the ATS panels right in the wall corners it will help but you really need to address the entire surface area in the room where these transitions are located... |
what you need to do is not just jump into buying treatment. first is RTA with REW and a calibrated mic. do iterative speaker placement with your speakers and take RTA to determine what has the best balance and listen to confirm. Only then can you know what kind of treatment you need Also, @keeferdog, speak to Vespers of Warp Academy here |
