Sogood51...I understand your point about reverberation in a concrete room. My point is that for certain kinds of music, jazz in a cellar dive or organ in a stone cathedral, that "cascading mix" of reverberant sound is exactly what is needed for realism. Of course, my room is not concrete. I am just making an observation about something (unexpected) that I have observed. |
I think Sogood's suggestion is the best place to start. You are still going to have some boom. You will either need to build a high Q resonator or possibly correct for the remaining boom electrically with something like our PARC. Even if you do intend on dealing the anticipated problem electrically--try to do everything else you can to minimize that amount of correction first. This is one case where you should build the walls one layer 1/2 inch sheetrock and insulation behind. It will allow the walls to give and reduce the Q a bit. There are a lot of resources on our website that might be helpful to you. Here's a link to the resource page |
Probably something from Europe. My understanding is many homes in Europe have hard floors and concrete walls and many of the European speakers are designed with this in mind. I dont know this to be fact but I have read it in several threads. A good tube amp and tube CDP should also be considered. A throw rug, some pillows and other sound deadening material will also help. |
