I'm sorry to say it, but I think Amy's large rug is too large.  A smaller one, or better yet, two much smaller ones with some bare floor in between, is what I would play with.

I also think you should recalibrate the channel levels and time-align them before making any more judgements about the room.  For sure you would not try to make your choice between an Audi and a BMW when both have bald tires and need new spark plugs...

The "visual feel" of the room is very much improved and this makes up for a lot.  The Sound will eventually come back with more efforts, probably not even major efforts.

JJ, the large carpet was my idea; I would go even for larger one. I like a large carpet in the mid of the room, it creates a good play zone. Probably a few smaller ones with some bare floor in between would be better for randomization of reflection but I do not think that it is too comfortable to live with, at least to me. My listening room is in fact one of 2 living rooms in our house and the room where we spend most of our time….

I do hear you that I need to time-align Macondo before looking at the room but I kind of know what Sound comes from time-misalignment. What I have now is different. It is like some kind of very mild white noise is injected in sound and I do feel that it is result ether PP3000 proximity or accustiks.
