Room treatments for a lively sounding room

@alvinnir2 you have a smallish room with hardwoods instead of carpet, so you are going to have A LOT of reflected sound at high levels.  As you move your listening position closer to the speakers, you will increase the ratio of direct to reflected sound.  You may be able to dial in a sound that you like simply by moving your listening position closer to the speakers, or moving the speakers closer to your listening position, or a little of both.  

Another approach is to add treatments to the ceiling above the listening position.  This can get you a sound that is similar to a carpeted floor.  What I personally almost never recommend is sidewall treatment in front of the first reflection point.  Maybe a little but very little.  This tends to compromise soundstage width.  

It would e helpful to know how high your ceilings are and where your speakers and listening position are.  

Well the speakers are about 8 feet apart and my listening position is about 10 feet from them. Yes the floors are hardwood but the entire area between my speakers and listening position is covered with a thick oriental rug. The sidewall treatment along with the rug has worked quite well so far. Ceiling is 7 1/2 feet high. The side wall has about 12 sq. feet of sound treatment and there is a bit behind my head. So far its worked out quite well but yes, I can bring the speakers in closer and it’s better still. Thanks

I assume you’ve played around with tweeter height. Diffusion will give you greater detail and definition.
