Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

Your boat looks quite tall, and full with records (killing reverberation at mid-to-high frequencies).
I guess those sails are not doing so very much for reverberation at high frequencies as much as blocking disturbing early reflections... or providing some kind of HF randomization? God knows I'm talking out of my hiney now. :-)

BTW, I'd like to pitch a thought I just had that is very much related and equally badly grounded:
-Perhaps the big mouths of our mid bass horns are really blessings in disguise in relation to what is playing above them...
Think about it; they completely block out what would otherwise become early MF reflections from the floor.
I've heard the advice many times to have a table or at least very thick carpet just in front of the listening position to either redirect or absorb these reflections.
Hrm. Enough mindgames for now.

The ceiling treatments have made pianos even less disturbing, but I still have a long way to go with this boat.
