Wool Blankets as Room treatment


Just noticed Pendelton has some really nice wool blankets that can be hung on the wall.  They even sell the fixturing.  I would assume the wool blanked would have some beneficial properties for a blank wall?

Looks a lot better than a bare wall that’s fer sure.  Any improvements in sound so far?  Don’t make any conclusions until the rug has at least 100 hours on it, ehem.

OP,

 

Beautiful. I hesitate to say this… but hanging it horizontally would have had it cover more of the critical area behind the speakers.

@soix yes good one and yes in think subtle gusseting of sound stage by dialing back the high’s a tad.

@ghdprentice still considering GIK diffusers panels on the side as they are relatively affordable.

That is a nice looking setup.  An area rug in front of the speakers would help a whole lot; the bigger, the better.  Some kind of absorption or diffusion on the side walls would be nice too; I like diffusion with wall decorations, bookshelves, more potted plants, etc. to break up reflections into a more random pattern.  Diffusion panels from a place like GIK would be good; you can have them covered with blown up images of whatever you like.
