Which Room is Best Between These Two
I have a nice system currently set up in a small spare bedroom. The system is made up of an integrated amp, CD player, and larger stand mount monitors. The room is 10'-11" wide by 11'-1" long with 8' ceilings. So not that big. The speakers are set up along the 10'-11" wall due to layout. Being almost perfectly square I feel the room is a limiting factor for this set up.
We have another small spare bedroom rectangular in set up that has dimensions of 9'-3" wide by 13'-2" long also with 8' ceilings. The thought crossed my mind that this might be a better room to set up in being rectangular in shape. But the narrow width concerns me. I could probably set up along either a short wall or a long wall.
The negative side to a change in room is all of the moving of furniture and system. But if it will create a better environment that would be a worthy consideration.
Does this size rectangular room/proportion present a better environment? If so, would you set up the speakers on the long wall or the short wall?

Take a look at this: https://amcoustics.com/tools/amrocCan you please explain what “BOLT” area is? and is X a dimension or what? |
The website explains it. Here it is from link I gave you: "The so called "Bolt-area" indicates a accumulation of good room ratios. If the red cross lies within this area you have a good chance of more evenly distributed modes." Put in different dimensions into the calculator and you will see the X move into or out of the Bolt area. Good luck! |
Well lets say neither room fits the "Bolt-Area". What are you going to do, build another room.. I say that tongue in cheek, but most of us use what we have. So pick a size just like women/men. Big ones, little ones, fat ones, skinny ones.. Make it work.. Master M, uses "a room", he'll make any size work.. 500.00 for his whole system.. Serious Audiophiler. Regards |
