Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment.


Why?  Because acoustical treatments presented are in virtually empty rooms. Unrealistic.

my rooms have furniture and clutter.  These rooms don’t really have a need for treatment.  It’s snake oil, voodoo science.  
So why is accoustical panels gonna help?  No one can answer this, most have no clue.

I dont think "normal" rooms have 4 inch thick bass traps in the corners which DOES help tremendously if you value great non boom bass. Other stuff is great as well, one of the least snake oil things in this hobby which there is plenty of. 
@dekay ...as long as you keep all your remotes on your belt in that space you're good to go....;)
"my rooms have furniture and clutter."

Why do you assume that my room is cluttered?

(It is not)

Jumia was more observant than me though as...

I never noticed the "window shelves" or the ceiling for that matter.

We lost track of a "cable guy" a few months ago (starting to smell funny in here) and come to think of it I have not seen my wife and one of our cats for a few days now.

I use a fanny pack pack for the remotes (like real men do).

There are two types of audiophiles ... those who have never tried acoustic treatments and 'think' their system sounds great. And those who have treated their rooms and 'know' their system sounds better than before.
