Well the speakers are about 8 feet apart and my listening position is about 10 feet from them. Yes the floors are hardwood but the entire area between my speakers and listening position is covered with a thick oriental rug. The sidewall treatment along with the rug has worked quite well so far. Ceiling is 7 1/2 feet high. The side wall has about 12 sq. feet of sound treatment and there is a bit behind my head. So far its worked out quite well but yes, I can bring the speakers in closer and it’s better still. Thanks
Room treatments for a lively sounding room
I recently remodelled my 10 x 15 listening room as well as the adjacent room it is open to. New paint and hardwood floors now instead of carpet. The room sounded to "shouty in the midrange". I bought a large area rug for the room but the room was still too "lively" sounding. Tried putting a blanket on the side wall not adjacent to the open room. Sounded much better, but unattractive. So just I installed a multi panel room treatment kit from Primacoustic last night. I was just curious what other members of this forum have used and what room treatment experiences have worked best for them.
