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.

acoustics is literally physics. how sound waves interact with your room is well understood by now and critical for good sound. True with big operas and theaters, just as true with your small room

i am talking about crappy studio efforts. Accoustic treatments will improve crappy recordings, but wont make all crappiness go away.
I haven't read the whole thread for a long time. but since I'm an acoustic engineer, I can only say one thing to the OP.
how stupid is ignorance
What amazes me is that such a blatantly ignorant and bellicose original post has garnered 4 pages of replies.  Why do people come here and do this?  Seems so pointless.
