Changed Speaker Placement NOW BOOMY

Hello,

I have a bit of a problem. We bought new furniture for the living room where the stereo is and after replacing a couch, adding a chair and moving the speakers and audio rack down about 2 feet towards the corner and the speakers which where about 3 feet off the wall before are now about 14" off the wall.

I now have this unnatural sub boom and since I am using thiel 1.6 which have very little if any sub freq I can only assume its the room.

I understand that moving stuff around can do this, but its such a big change and I really dont have much room to play with.

Are there any cheap cheap cheap ways of fixing boom bass in a room.

The room is 12' X 26' with 9' ceilings.

If you look at my system pix the stereo is sorta in the same place with minor adjustments.

Any help would be super awesome.

The Panels I've done looked wonderful. I don't see why you would get the idea to wrap them in Burlap or have plywood showing? You have to wrap them in Cashmere.

Your best bet would be to get a material sample from the Misses to make sure you are in compliance!

I mean no harm or disrespect but this is a really fun thread on a subject that we have all dealt with at some point in time. :)

Counting on your success and a first edition of your fourthcoming how-to-book.

If I realize that panels are needed after a few days of listening then I will outsource a project to Timlub. If he could build panels that look streamline and also maybe act like a light source then maybe we are in business.

I saw in Home Depot last night these awesome looking LED high hat bulbs, I was thinking today after Timlub mentioned panel how could I make these thing disappear in the room then i thought maybe I can have one of those facing up out of the panel or column for that matter, behind the speakers. That would look sweet.
