I did remember about the relative 'deadness' of your room, but when I looked at the pics of your HT, it looked like the panels were a little low/out of place -- it's hard to tell from the picture. Anyway, if they could be moved, it's a free and easy tweak to play with -- I like both of those, free (I am a CPA after all

) and tweak (I enjoy 'playing' with my system

). Also, I have very limited first hand knowledge with accoustic panels, so I wanted to know how much of what I've "read" matches up with the real world. Especially since I hope to build some in the near future.
