drdna,
The subject of room reflections is kind of completed topic but form what you described I do not think that your problems are there but rather in some kind of bug of your system that you will discover soon. Meanwhile, I would disregard any ro...

Romy, the first time that I noticed that the speaker wires are very important to the sound was when Steve put some very expensive audiophile wires in place of our normal magnet wire. I walked into the room while familiar musi...

[quote user="Paul S"].... my wife would shoot me .... So, I wonder how she'll react to the "sails"...[/quote]Actually if the sails match a room’s decor then it feels strange for a week or two but then no one, even your wife, will pay attention to it....

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...

Romy - The sails may or may not fit the aesthetics of your room but it will be tough to get the fans to work effectively with them installed. I thought that a sail furling system might be an interesting option. There are different types but in a nut...

Scooter, of course this test sail does not fit my room, this is what it is a test sail. I do feel that if I implement the crossing trials as I present at the sketch above then it might do. The idea of to have the furling system and a pair of removabl...

Ronnie,
It is very simple to test if the clapping echoes defuse your sound too much. I usually use a method that I call “sailboating”. In fact I use the “sails” permanently installed in my listening room and it is the way how I control certain thing...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Ok, I think it is a good time to deal with room acoustics. All infrastructure problems are set. The Midbass horns are underway; the electricity will be investigated but as now is addressed by PP2000. Macondo and Milqs a...

The only concerns in my room are ceiling and a small fraction of
back wall. The back wall is very small – I am sure I will take care of
it. The ceiling is a bitch however. My leading idea is to use the sails
in th...

As one might suspect, the vaulted ceilings eat and augment the sound in totally unpredictable ways. Hard to say if sails would help or they might eat the wrong frequencies. I would start by trying to get the room as hyped up as I could and then sta...

Embarrassed to say that I just now thought about the 11' 1" X 11' 1" dimensions. This is generally not a good start, to say the least. I'll leave it for you to do the math and/or the measurements. This might be a case where you could benefit from ...

I personally like the idea of an audio room like a very dedicated room, Monoplatz with only the sweetspot seat. If I have to climb through an elevator or slide into a cockpit it is fine as long as the machine runs fast!For me it is like submerging m...

I still have no solid idea how to naturally tame the wild upper-mid/lower-treble I have heard. I went ahead and soldered in the guestimated notch filter yesterday, very sharp, 6 dB, and by this morning the (removable) silicone stick-um was dry, so I...

Yes, i was already thinking the area behind me will need to be treated against reflections because i'm too close.
I have enough closet space so I’d like to solve it a bit nicer looking than a storage racks.
I'd still rather not use the violet...

Well, wouldn't you know that my wife is an artist, too. Although she hasn't been very productive for the past couple of years, she is totally over-the-top manic when she does work, and we have the usual artist's home, with tons of art...

New attempts at ..well... absorbing reflections from the low ceiling (and diffusing the very highest frequencies I suppose). This is not exactly the type of treatment I want, but it works for experimenting.I also don't think this is quite the same as...

Cool morning and some great music early, but things got worse as the temperature rose.I finally +/- gave up on just listening to music and started listening to the ingredients, and then I started to move around the room as I listened.Based on a ...

I wonder, do cathedral ceilings has any acoustic focusing effects? Theoretically the vertical reflections shall bubble themselves up but in practically I have no knowledge how the Cathedral Rooms behave. Did anybody try to analyze how Cathedral C...

There is a lot on this site about room treatments, if you take the time to look for it. For example [url=http://www.goodsoundclub.com/GetPost.aspx?PostID=1829&Phrase=sails]remember this from a few years back?[/url] I suggest you browse the site for a...

Thinking about the integration scenarios of my midbass horn I come to a realization that it highly possible that the horn in THIS room will do something very unique. I have wrote before that I was successful to set channels delayed but the delay ...

that old sails does just control <1khz reflections ... you need to control your mid bass n basic bass frequencies first. [/quote]

I was listening today the Bolshoy 1948 production on LYS twice. What the beauty. As the tribute to this performance I am posting articles about the singers who did the “Boris Godunov” with Golovanov in 1948. The Articles are courtesy to writing staff...
