I thought I'd throw this out there for the experts and pro's in accoustics..

Assume we have a rectangular room with a carpeted floor and a typical height ceiling. I'd like to keep the advice as generic as possible, but if you need a dimension for the room, how about 10x15.

If I want to address the accoustics in the room properly, please answer the following:

1) Where would you put the front speakers, on the short or long wall?
2) What treatments would you use first and where would they be placed?
3) What treatments would you use second and where would they be placed?
4) What treatments would you use third and where would they be placed?
5) Etc
6) Would any of the answers change if it were simply a 2 channel system?

Mostly what I'd like to get at is if someone were on a limited budget, how could they get the best accoustics from a room.
