I'm happy with my Atlanta Metro home with finished basement (dry-walled, carpeted concrete floor, dropped ceiling with heavy-ish fibrous material squares) which has a decent sized room for dedicated audio (20.125' L x 12.67' W), EXCEPT for the ceiling height (7.1' H)! Would really like 9' or so instead. That is my room's limiting factor. It could prob use a little more width as well, but not as much a concern as ceiling height for me. But very happy with the sound from the room, though it is treated with GIK products.
House buying and the aspiring audipihile
I’ve been looking for homes in the south. Final destination to be determined.
One of the features I’d like to have is decent potential for a great listening room, and doing so has made me feel like a true rare breed. What I mean is, it is so rare to find a room I think would work great for music. There’s a fireplace, or windows or odd shaped living room to throw off my aspirations.
What I’m reminded of, again, is how very very different the average consumer’s listening room and priorities are compared to audiophiles or moviephiles. It is clear to me that if you want to be a very successful speaker maker you need to make speakers which still sound good even as they vanish.
