IMO your missing an opportunity here to remove the room from the equation.By setting up in the center of the long wall you will eliminate early reflections,echo & bass nodes.Treat all corners,high & low.Split the long wall behind electronics(keep as low as possible) into 3 sections & treat with 2'x4' panels.Echo treatment centered over listening area @ ceiling junction & over electronics.2 small panels on wall behind listening chair/s.Keep subs off the floor using Auralex SubDude's & your room will sing!
non parallel walls in listening room
I have the chance to build a listening room about 16' x 30'. I'll be setting up my 2 channel along the short side and listening towards the middle/back. I can make the 30' wall non-parallel. My question is exactly non-parallel does one need to reduce resonances? Are we talking a degree or so, or a few inches along the whole length, or a couple feet?? Anything more than a few inches would be hard for me to do and I wonder if a small amount would make a difference.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
