@mahgister, we are on the same page.
@669326 Dear OP, it does not work like that. You are going to continue to get 'advice' and most of it will contradict itself unfortunately. In my experience only a very small percentage of those keen on reproducing music bother to treat the room, even fewer bother to try and understand the 'how and why'
For example: I have seen it stated that you should just cover all walls in egg-crates. This represents narrow-band absorption, and narrow-band thinking! So what will happen? The frequency that has the same wavelength as the depth of egg-crate will be absorbed and because there is so much of it that music info will be missing. GONE. The rest of the spectrum will carry on reverberating around your room totally unaffected.
The above situation happens because some well intentioned ignoramus puts that out on the forum. It also exposes him as someone recommending something he has never tried but is merely regurgitating what he read elsewhere, because anyone who has egg-crated the whole place would upon hearing the result, immediately rip it all out.
My best advice is to educate yourself. Get on the net and read articles by those who know what they are talking about. For the cost of a cheap interconnect cable you can buy a mic. This cable will make no real difference (the room won't let you hear the tiny change) The mic. however will allow you to significantly improve your sound. Your choice.
