use of treatments and sound consultant


Hi,

Anyone care to offer me their 2 cents on acoustic treatments and acoustic consultants. I have a listening area which is also my living room. I have hardwood floors and vaulted ceiling. Its a rather long room but average width. Anyway I have nice equipment (Wilson Watt Puppy 7, Rowland 302, Cary 306-200, BAT VK51SE preamp) and was wondering if anyone has any luck with an acoustic treatment consultant in greater Los Angeles area? I spoke to one individual and he said that I would need to install treatments on the wall and ceiling. Well this is not a dedicated room and has anyone done this in their living room? Also, he wants $350 to do the consult and they do not use electronic measuring equipment. Do you think this is important to use electronic or computer measuring equipment?

Thanks,

Michael

This is a view looking over my sofa and into the acoustically treated walls. People standing in the room are seldom aware the entire space has been professionally treated.
