Vinyl(the other kind)


Anyone have any idea as to whether vertical vinyl blinds on large floor to ceiling sliding door windows  are  in any way
effective in helping sound of speakers placed before window ?
Never occurred to me .

@Schubert- I'll take a stab though I'm not an acoustician. It would seem to me that vertical blinds would break up the sound, and you could vary the effect by how they are angled, but the backdrop still being glass would remain an issue. 
I think people have used old shutters as an adjustable diffuser for certain things-
Why don't you experiment and see what angling the slats does? Fully closed, they would obviously be a reflective surface. I don't know if lining them on the side facing out would help--would seem to be some labor for questionable results. Interested to see what others think.
best,
