Room Treatment for a


I'm moving to a new house where the dedicated listening room is a FROG. That stands for Family Room Above Garage. As is typical for these room in NC they have a rectangular floor but the long walls are angled about thirty degrees towards the center starting about three feet about the floor. This makes the ceiling area smaller than the floor (imagine a stick figure house drawing with the top triangle truncated into a trapezoid). I plan to have the speakers against one of the two short walls of the rectangle floor. Does anyone have any experience with applying sound treatment in such a room? Any advice would be appreciated.

You should contact the helpful folks at GIK Acoustics. You can submit pics of your room and they can offer suggestions.

Good Luck!

Kiss it and it'll turn into a princess 😄 Joking aside, Check out asmucks system here on AG which is similar as far as the slanted walls. Art enlisted the help of HD Acoustics in setting up the room which is among a handful of the best performing rooms I have had the pleasure of listening in.

Best of luck

My primary listening room is as you describe. With a variety of different loudspeakers (dipoles, horns, front radiating and omnis) the room has required very little acoustic treatment. Just using some old Micheal Green corner tunes behind the loudspeakers. The room is carpeted and well furnished. It also serves as the storage space for my vinyl and CD collections. The only problem with the room is that I wish the floor was more solid.
