$1,000 to spend on room treatment....
My new room 21*13*7 has very bad acoustic: flutter echo of hell (a solid 2 seconds of metallic echo for each clapping of hands), bass resonance and probably more that hides being the first 2 but that will become noticeable later on. I have a max of $1,000 to spend to treat it and already own 4 fiberglass panels 2*4 that I can use to treat mids and diffuse. What do you suggest - price when new to be consistent? There are some room kits that seem to fit the bill (www.primacoustic.com) but I need guidance on this. Tks.

If you're going to spend that much, contact Richard at Rives and do it right. http://www.rivesaudio.com |
Aside from the 7 ft high ceiling, you have a near ideal room size. Before spending money on 'room treatments' per se, I would suggest the following: o That your floor is covered with a thick carpet pad and a thick berber or pile type of carpet. o Remove any hard reflective surfaces from the room, ie leather furniture, glass tables, picture frames, table and floor standing lamps, etc.. o Consider using overstuffed cloth-covered furniture, ottoman, etc., recessed or small floor-based lighting, draperies, etc.. o And most important is the speaker placement within the room. Only then would consider proper room treatments. But hopefully at that point your room would no longer be a concern. -IMO |
