All excellent and very much appreciated advise. I have much homework and reading to do! I love the pillow and chair idea, when the wife leaves the room, now that's thinking outside the box!
Thanks Bob.

How do you enhance a bad listening room's accoustics without breaking the bank? thoughts?
I am looking at a cork wall covering product to help enhance my listening room acoustics. The room is in a condo and shares duty as an "L" shaped living / dinning room. As I have neighbor's on either side I was thinking of doing the one wall where the speakers are placed and the opposite wall where I have my sitting position (The Coach!). I was thinking the entire sitting room wall (10x8) and the speaker area (10x8) on the opposite wall. This may also have the additional bonus of helping to reduce the noise coming from my stereo into those condo's next to me?
I was wondering what people's experience has been and successful materials used as wall coverings or panels.

https://www.thefoamfactory.com/acousticfoam/wedgefoam.html For $123.00 you can get a box of 48 12 X 12 X 4" tiles. That is enough to do four 3 X 3' patches. It is cheap enough to allow you to experiment before you spend money on better looking treatment. There is nothing more effective and many people just keep the foam tile which looks very technical. In a darkened theater environment it makes no difference anyway. |
I'm a little surprised that no one has recommended DSP as a potential solution for the OP. There are several very good integrated amps with DSP built-in. That might help especially with bass management. In fact, even the low-end SVS subs now come with DSP. He may not need to mess with physical room treatments to get what he needs. Just a thought. |
