What is it that you don't like about your Listening Room ?

It's unconventional, so not my first choice, but it worked out and I like it. The room provided challenges. The front wall is a 10 foot long bearing wall with open space 360 degrees around it. In my case, not a small room problem.

the view .........

My speakers are sometimes blocked by the pole dancers.

Lets see.....  a door smack in the middle of the speakers on the back wall.....a door in each R & L corner.... four  6' tall windows to the rear..... hardwood,  9' tin ceiling......  other than that it's great....

Needs new carpet 

I love my listening room. It is smallish, and I prefer it that way. Cuts down on the speaker costs. I have two minor issues: 1. I share it with my son who occasionally plays video games in the same room and 2. It is not symmetrical so it has a minor suck out on the left side. I have to really work the speaker placement to get even volume from both speakers and get a dead center center-image.

But I'm not complaining. I'm fortunate to have a mostly dedicated room, where WAF is not a consideration. 

I FINALLY have a dedicated room and am REALLY thankful for this. However, although it is a decent size the stupid ceiling is too low. This is in the basement and the ceiling tiles are hung as high as they can go but they are still not quite even 8' high. I would SO much prefer a higher ceiling as I suspect this is the reason I am being forced to listen near field. It seems this is the only configuration where the sound is best.

Mine is L shaped like a miniature Village Vanguard. Could be bigger.

i am usually alone....

However my room is great.

Dedicated room, dedicated line, acoustic treatment.
No complaints. Been doing this since 1975, hands down best sounding system I've ever owned.
@reubent , @rockadanny , room treatment. Had the same problems until acoustic treatment.

...my neighbors.
They hit wall with heavy object when my listening room is too loud.

If I ever move, my current room will be hard to match or surpass.

@tomcarr - I already have these treatments:

GIK Tri Traps 2 pairs stacked in front corners up to ceiling

GIK 244 Bass Traps at 1st & 2nd sidewall reflections
GIK Evolution PlyFusors (3) on back wall

What else might you recommend?

@rockadanny , what about the floor? Carpet or area rug to cover hard surfaces...

Tom

@rockadanny , just saw your room. VERY nice!!!
My guess would be treatment across the front wall (behind the speakers), and treatment on the ceiling. Maybe consider hiring Jim Smith to tweak your setup. You've got a wonderful system and room, you deserve to get the absolutely best sound it is capable of.

Tom

Thanks Tom. Good ideas. Especially might consider what it might take to have Jim come over. He probably lives not too far from me (I am in Marietta, GA, and I see he has an Atlanta area code).

Too small, but it can sound great.

I do find that a decent size area rug and long curtains help out a lot.

Well, I've laid out a lot in the speaker thread, but I'm most fortunate and happy with my main 17' X 28' room.

My second room is 15' X 13', and has its challenges, as components tend to sound quite hard, and I often go through periods where component changes yield less difference than they should.  I also have a third room, but I don't put as much effort into that

More than anything else, experience shows me the room takes the position as the most important component, by far

Too cold in winter. 

My biggest gripe is  the system is in our living room and it shares a TV, lots of furniture and a wife who watches a lot of TV.  Get the picture?

I designed the AV room of my dreams, completed in 2010.  My front room, 13ft x 15ft, had always been my two channel listening room and sounded excellent.  But I got into home theater/projection big time and totally reno'd the room to have a 4 way automated masking screen, hidden projector, sound treatment "built in" to the design, custom made furniture precisely to my demands of comfort and aesthetics, etc.  It turned out even better than I dreamed and has been the best AV thing I've ever done.

My one single problem is that it's the only room I have for all my hobbies.  So my two channel speakers (Thiels) share room with the surround speaker set up.  The way I had to set up the room means the two channel speakers have to sit out in the room, one right near the room entrance.  On the positive side, the room has never sounded better and even big speakers like my Thiel 3.7s sound unbelievable. 

But for aesthetic and ergonomic reasons, my big Thiel 3.7s are a bit of a problem and I have to downsize a bit.  So that's a bit of a bummer. 
Though it looks like I'll be good with the slightly smaller 2.7s (or something else) and subs.

But beyond that it's a dream room and every time I use it I feel like pinching myself with glee.

+1 trelja,

Agree 100%...

Tom

Stereo5,

+1 and my room is also used as a dining room as well, hence the primary reason for going active

It took me a while to get the "one note" bass sound controlled in my 24' x 26' "man cave", but with the help of10 bass traps with the help of the REW software and a calibration microphone, the room sounds awesome!

Lack of fun deco on the front wall.

...it'd be nicer if it was adjacent to a lake. *S*

I'm planning to have one next to a 'Personal Forest'....deafen the birds and critters....;)

asvjerry.....see my post about the view.....a hyper blessing and a curse....the sqwacking of herons, gulls, the eagle is pretty quiet but gets the ravens stirred up, i love the plucky kingfisher..they all seem to emanate from the left channel..ha

Love everything. dedicated room. 19 x 29 x 9 ft. ceiling. 

Too far to the beer fridge!

Have a smallish, 14.5X15.5X9 foot room. Almost square. Does have wall to wall pile carpet with curtains though. Biggest problem is with "slap echo." Think it's coming from front wall near ceiling. I think. Getting pretty good sound except when I turn up volume to loud past a certain point. Even when I do this, it's not deafening loud. Ideas???

No room service!
