The wall behind me.

Hi

In my listning room wich is 420 cm * 380 cm.
I have a sofa on/against the wide side where my listning possition is.

On the opposit wide wall my sonus faber cremonas are placed.

Now the wall behind me is not covered by enything yet so its bare.

I have tried to hang a carpet there with audible improvments.

Now my qustina is when I look for acoustic panels for the wall behind me should I look for abersoberation og difussion panels or a mix of both ?

regards

I placed DIY (Do it yourself) panels behind me, I have same issue as you and it killed the "slap echo" I was getting from the wall behind me.
I used stryofoam for a mounting area, placed batting material used for stuff pillows and quilts, then wrapped it in a nice Cotton wrap to match the room, looks great.
I have to do things on a budget so this may not be the best but it did help quite a bit.

The sound doesnt need to bounce off back wall if your seat is right there.
