Acoustic treatment for apts

I'm hoping I could get some advice for my odd shaped apartment. I've got all kinds of acoustic problems. The right wall has a fireplace. The left wall has a V-shaped indention. The rear has open spaces on both sides with a big one on the left. The ceiling is vaulted, but slants left (high, 12') to right (low, 9'). My acoustic reflections don't have a clue as to what to do. Neither do I.

I've been looking around and found some nice acoustic panels I could hang on the wall in the 2" & 4" variety. There really isn't a good place for a bass trap. How effective would this be? I've got great real estate in the front and rear. Your ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I can modify anything, so long as it can be reverted back.

Do you personally know a good, high end dealer that works nearby?

They might have the time to come over and give a quick assessment. You sound like you're half way there. They might see something that's eluding you.

All the best,

Yes, you may have very nice acoustic panels in the market. But most of them are not acoustically effective. MDF substrate & melamine laminated acoustic panels are not only good looking but also acoustically very effective. As visualization is important to you, you may choose wooden pattern acoustic panels. They are good looking & effective also. You may visit https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/acoustic-problems-need-advice/post?postid=1393318#1393318 to know more.
